Birthday poem

TODAY’S YOUR BIRTHDAY
IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU
BUT YOU’RE SO FAR AWAY
SO I’M SENDING AN IOU

I PLAN TO TREAT YOU
SHOW YOU THAT I CARE
IT’S SOMETHING I WANT TO DO
FOR YOU ONCE YOU’RE NEAR

FOR NOW AS A START
I WROTE THIS POEM JUST FOR YOU
SOME WORDS FROM THE HEART
THE LEAST I COULD DO

I LOVE OUR CONVERSATION
THAT I CAN BE MYSELF
NOT WANTING IT TO END
WON’T PUT MY LOVE UPON A SHELF

I HOPE TO TAKE THIS FURTHER
SEE WHERE THIS MAY LEAD
WANTING TO GROW OLD TOGETHER
AND RAISE A FAMILY

YOU’VE BECOME SPECIAL TO ME
PUTTING A SMILE UPON  MY FACE
I’M EXCITED TO SEE
WHERE IN LIFE WE FIND OUR PLACE

I NEVER DREAMT IT COULD BE THIS GOOD
I’D FIND SOMEONE LIKE YOU
A GENUINE SOMEONE WHO WOULD
INSPIRE ME THE WAY YOU DO

LEARNING ABOUT YOUR PAST
AND ALL THAT YOU’VE BEEN THROUGH
OUR CONNECTION HAPPENED SO FAST
I LOVE THE MAN I SEE IN YOU

SHARING IN A LOVE OF GOD
READING, STUDYING, PRAYING TOO
PLANTING OUR FEET ON GOSPEL SOD
I CAN’T WAIT TO GO TO CHURCH WITH YOU

THIS POEM IS ALL WRONG
IMPERFECT JUST LIKE ME
IT WOULDN’T MAKE A PERFECT SONG
BUT I’M LOOKING FOR ETERNITY

I DON’T KNOW WHERE WE’RE GOING
I HOPE THAT YOU CAN SEE
THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING
HOW GREAT WE TWO CAN BE

I HOPE YOU WILL GIVE ME CHANCE
TO SHOW YOU THAT I’M ALL IN
THIS COULD BE THE ONE ROMANCE
EVERYONE WANTS TO “WIN”

TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
I HOPE IT’S WONDERFUL AS YOU
I WANT YOU TO KNOW I AM HERE TO STAY
I HOPE YOU’LL LET ME SHOW YOU

Happy birthday, C! 😚🎂🎁🎈
