What Would I Do Without You?

It’s been a journey; it’s been so long,

I’ve come to know, with you I belong,

You’re so special, you’re so dear,

You’ve taken my pain, you’ve removed my fear.

Not a day goes by without your thought,

You’re the one I’ve never fought,

Been in the sunshine and in the rain,

You’ve never stopped me, never refrained.

People give gifts, I write to you,

From my heart, oh yes I do,

Thoughts unsaid, and feelings untold,

It’s time to speak out; it’s time to be bold.

You’ve led me forward; you light up my way,

You’ve made me talk, all that I want to say,

Ranting, poetry, stories, all fiction,

You’ve had me try a lot, you’ve handed me conviction.

Time’s gone by fast; it’s a couple of years,

I say this, my eyes moist with happy tears,

You’ve been there from moment one,

Nothing you missed, lines and words none.

I walk the path at times alone,

The wing chilling me through to the bone,

It wasn’t me I feel, it was all you,

That’s when I ask myself,

What would I do without you?
