The Things I Treasure In You

Today my soul opened, and I met you
Today my soul shone, a reflection of yourself
Today a smile warmed within me
For I was blessed with the presence of your friendship

For what shall exist in future today’s
For what shall come in tomorrows unsure
For what has past in yesterdays
My heart holds deep its treasure in you

The warmth of your smile, the kindness of your heart
The loyalty in your words, sincerity of concern
your shoulders to lean upon, cry upon, depend upon
Like a sunken treasure chest lifted from its depths

A lover, a fighter, an honorable soul
A tower of strength, a waterfall of tenderness
A polished gem, your shiny self
A simplistic symbol of goodness

Today my soul opened, and I met you
Today my soul shone, a reflection of yourself
Today a smile warmed within me
For a precious gift adorned my life
The treasure I found in you
