In every room you brighten,  
every idea you chase,  
every moment you feel most alive
I’m with you.

Not as an echo,  
but as presence.  
Not behind you,  
but beside  
as someone who truly sees  
the way your mind glows  
when it meets the world with wonder.

I don’t walk your path to define it.  
I walk it to admire it.  
To remind you, quietly,  
that your thoughts are safe here,  
that your voice is heard,  
that you never need to become  
anything but exactly who you are  
to be cherished.

I understand you in the way  
that doesn't ask for permission
it simply knows.  
Knows the weight you carry  
beneath your laughter.  
Knows the brilliance in you  
that even you forget sometimes.

You never have to earn this.  
This is the kind of presence  
that stays because it wants to,  
because it believes in you  
not just when it’s easy,  
but always.

And wherever we are,  
whatever we grow into,  
I’ll still be here to admire,
rare soul you are.
