My Everything

Our smiles so big as we take a picture together

It’s days like this I wish lasted forever

Your eyes voice only beauty about you

The sky in the background was a cloudy blue

At the beach expressing our love to each other

You told me I’m strong smart and not like another

My love for you will never decline 

I wrapped my arms and held you from behind

The sun hit your eyes making them gold 

Emotions of happiness could not be controlled 

I held on tight hoping to never let go 

The sun hit our skin making it glow

To my best friend, my world, my everything, and my Mom

When my emotions are crazy you help me stay calm

Without you I wouldn't be the man that I am

You encourage me and give me the strength when I wane
