I made you laugh,

I made you cry tears of happiness,

I loved every part of your body,

And though I doubted,

I always came back.

I fed you, cooked for you everyday

I touched you tenderly when you needed it

I kissed every part of your body

I inspired you to achieve your best

I walked with you

Took care of you when you were sick

I held you when you were scared

I reassured you of your goodness

I loved you, completely, unabashedly

And did everything I could to show you just how much you meant to me

I have no illusions about this thing

Sometime people regret having not done enough,

Or having done too much

But I know I only did what my heart told me to do

And I found that I have the capacity to love

For that I have to thank you

Its sad that your own heart cannot let you see how much of myself I have given to you

But I am grateful that you handed it back to me

That one day someone else might hold my heart in the right place.
