attempt at poetry: part VIII (Momma Dedication)

Thinking of the perfect gift to get you this year was a little bit tough

You usually never ask for anything, don’t want a lot of stuff

So I took some time to myself and thought about what would be wanted

And I eventually came to an answer that I know you would feel is enough

You preach to us most of the time how all you’d want is a little appreciation

Well I thought I would take that to heart this year, tune into that station

There is so much stuff you do for us that can’t even be put into words

We are always taken care of no question, and it’s long overdue to get yours

Most of the scolding we may receive now we really won’t appreciate now

But later down the road I know we will look back and just wonder how

All of these unnecessary things could be done for us and we didn’t realize

When all we have to do is look around us at friends, and open our eyes

Kids like us couldn’t really ask for better circumstances when we complain

There is so much to appreciate and we really haven’t seen actual strain

All of this to say no matter what goes down I love ya til the end

Couldn’t find a better mentor if I tried, you are the most loyal of a friend

The New Meaning

 

 

It feels to me like even words are not strong enough for this

Not strong enough to describe the feeling I get when I have you with me

The closest word is probably love, and even that doesn’t quite seem to reach

The top of the peak of this mountain that our bond has made so steep

I could sit here and try to go through all the caring words I know

But I promise you I’d come up short trying to find a word to show

Just how much you mean to me, it’s something I just leave alone

It’s like the old saying goes that your parents always teach back in the day

Actions speak louder than words, so I’m gonna act out all my feelings for you

Holding nothing back, you will feel the full impact of my love times two

Each year is just another opportunity to give you more of what you deserve

And Februrary 14^th is just a day, you get my love 24/7 365

Our feelings for each other have no word to describe them, so we won’t look for one
