When I think of pain, my mind wonders to you,
Because for you, pain is not something shiny brand new,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of strength, my mind wonders to you,
In your resolve to scrape pain away like old mildew,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of happiness, my mind wonders to you,
In your sunflower smile and floral rose gold tinted view
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of hope, my mind wonders to you,
Your flora brought sunlight when I thought it taboo,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of Holy God, my mind wonders to you,
Because you gave me the bridge to see Yahweh in me too,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of love, my mind always wonders to you,
In the way you have your heart is so open and see-through,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of caring hands, my mind wonders to you,
Because I see the way you love in radiant red with no ocean blue,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of resolve, my mind wonders to you,
How you connect the dots and attach people like glue,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of faith, my mind wonders to you,
I nearly lost mine but you held onto me with your glue,
My mind always wonders to you
When I think of you, my most beloved friend,
I bless God in your name, our journey is not the end,
Because my mind always wonders to you.
For Aleah, my rock, my truest friend in this harsh world we call a life. She is the most caring, loving, and genuine person I've had the pleasure of knowing. She changed me for the better.
