AS SPECIAL AS YOU ARE

Her?!?

Why, she's nothing special.

She's just a girl,

who drinks, parties, and is nice to people.

Sure, she's nice,

but she's nothing special.

All her life consists of

is drinking, partying, and studying.

That's not a life.

She doesn't have a life.

And she's not special.

But you are,

You're sweet enough to make the Heavens rain candy

until my world is sugarcoated and gay.

Kind enough to make a cold heart melt-

into a river of tears;

that flows to make a spring rose bloom.

And caring enough to clip its leaves,

though it might hurt now,

that in the end it will emerge all the more beautiful

for the pain it suffers now.

And so you'll prune it,

as you did me.

And I can never thank you enough for it.

Even though you're special enough

that I would make the stars dance just to make you smile.

That I would command the moon to kneel before you,

that you might climb upon its back,

and arise with it- just so you could travel around the world.

And I would freeze the oceans that you might skate upon them,

in a real life winter wonderland... like a ballerina,

or the princess that you are.

And I would still the sunset,

that I might have just a little longer

to gaze upon your countenance,

to kiss you upon your cheek

and hold you in my arms,

for just a little longer,

before the day turns dark.

But I can do no such things,

and am forced to settle for simply loving you,

and only wishing, that I could give you the world that you deserve,

being as special as you are.
