You and I

It’s like nothing I have ever experienced We have a special connection you and I It’s beautiful and indescribable
But you make me want to try.

When you cry I want to make it stop
To wipe your tears and make you feel ok It’s only you that makes me feel like this No one else, not in this way.

When you smile I want to stop in time
To never forget seeing you so happy
It is you who invokes out of me
No one else like you, trust me.

When you laugh I try to make it last forever
I try to share in the fun
It’s only you who brings this out of me Not any other person, not one.

When you are overwhelmed I want to hold onto you tight
To let you know I’m always there
It’s only you who makes me feel this
No one else my little dear.

My reactions are so natural
No effort is required
It’s true, it really is
We have a special connection you and I.

When your sad you want me to comfort you
To make everything better and to tell you it’s ok
It’s only me you want to be there
No matter the time of day.

When you’re happy you try to tell me “You’re doing this right”, and “I love you” It’s only me you want to say this to
No one else, it’s true.

When your worried you don’t want me to leave you
You want me to be your protector and shield
It’s only me you want to help you
No one one else in the support field.

When you can’t sleep you want me to be there with you
To help you settle and to cuddle you so tight
It’s only me you want this close to you No matter if it’s day or night.

You only have eyes for me right now
It’s no secret, it’s no lie
It’s true, it really is
We have a special connection you and I.

I know this won’t last forever
As you grow things will change
You will become more independent
Your priorities will rearrange.

With this limited window I have
It’s important I take the time
To enjoy every moment with you
While our relationship is in it’s prime.

As I lay here writing this
You are cuddled into my chest
There’s no place we’d rather be right now Our connection is simply the best.

For now I can confidently say this
I am aware the days are passing by
It’s true, it really is
We have a special connection you and I.
