my sweet boy is kind beyond belief
he's always patient and understanding with me
& when he's near, I feel nothing but relief
his heartbeat lulls me to sleep on the coldest of nights
and when I go days without him, nothing feels right
he has brown eyes that I could stare into forever
when he asks why I stare, I try to say something clever
'cause how could I say "I drown in your brown eyes"?
& that "they're as beautiful as a summer sunrise"?
in the end, I know nothing I say could truly suffice
his godly features draw me in, like a moth to a flame
igniting something in me that no other person could
he has replaced every awful memory filled with pain
and I can only hope & pray that he can say the same
