Before you grew into your face,
Before you cut your hair,
Before you changed,
I always saw you.
Your goofy smile, and
Your sense of humor.
Your understanding, and
Your gentle guiding voice.
The words you told me,
"I will always love you."
Trickled into my soul,
Sticking to me like honey.
I can feel it sliding down
Into my spin.
You are mine,
Now and forever.
