This is my personal card
Of course from me to you
This was kind of hard
Since there's so many words to use.

Though nothing can express
What a mother you have been
Yes, sometimes things can be a mess
But quickly we get over our sin.

I love you more than anything
And nothing will ever change that
For you and I, we have this string
The holds us back to back.

Both sides want the same thing
But in different ways
Who knows what this love will bring
We will have the watch the days...

Both sides so opposite
And yet so the same
But grab you mitt
Let's play this game.

This game of love and trust
This game of daughter and mother
This game is such a must
This game is against one another.

But why can't we be a team?
Get along, like we should
Why can 't things be peachy keen?
I bet if we tried, we could...

But things can be so much fun this way
You sure have taught me a lot
For tomorrow's just another day
Time cannot be bought.

So we better spend it right
Go out and have some fun
Let's try not to fight
So put down you're pointless gun.

Yes.. Challenges may come our way
Our love will beat them down flat
So be prepared for my play
Because I'm up to bat.

So this poem of our opposite teams
Is so completely true
And yet we support each others dreams
We just don't tell each other we do.

This might be a bit confusing
But this entire thing is right
I bet it's a bit amusing
When we think back to our fights.

I love you, I really do
So please except this gift
Yes, from me to you
Don't show anyone this poem, even if you can't resist.

I don't have to be anything for anyone
I don't have to prove myself to you
I shouldn't have to prove myself to you
So I won't.

There's an elephant in the room
When we're together
It's awkward and a little sad
But this is how it's become.

The space between us is so large
That it's like a vast desert
And I don't understand you anymore
And you don't understand me.

What pulled us apart
I'm sure is the difference
Between your shallow mind
And the depth of mine.

Drifting apart may be for the best
Though I will never tell you this
I'll just let the tides of change
Take me away to a different ocean.

But I never stop loving someone
That I've all ready loved
And you will always be in my heart
As a friend, as a shoulder to lean on, despite the distance.

And I've noticed the elephant in the room
Is so sad, so down, so angry
And you brought this elephant
But I don't mean to accuse.

I'll let the elephant stay
It's probably better this way
But I will always love you.

Life is puzzling
There's so many pieces
So little time
But you'll figure it out
And I'm sure, I truly believe, you will be fine.

Life is beautiful
There's so many colors
So little gray
You can paint the best picture
And I will place confidence in everything you say.

Life is complicated
There's so many lines
So little negative space
You can draw the best diagram
And I will admire what you create.

Life is exhilarating
There's so many ups and downs
So little plateaus
You can ride thehighest roller coaster
And I will never tell you any no's.

Life is so hot and yet so cold
There's so many different degrees
So little moments of numb
You can bathe in every temperature
And I will never let you go glum.

Life is so happy and yet so sad
There's so many different emotions
So little moments of bland
You can cry and laugh all at once
And I will never let go of your hand.

Life is so everything
There's so many things
So little moments of none
You can have and have not
And I will never let you run.

I'll be the push to your shove
The pull to your tug
The hate to your love
The love to your hate
The comfort to your hug
The partner in your fate.

We'll do this together.
Side by side.
Forever and ever.
Through every endeavor.

I'm amazed, surprised even
He's so good to me
I don't even have any reason
To be anything but me.

In fact I feel more myself
He's such a good guy
I almost don't deserve him
But I won't say goodbye.

Everything he is, is perfect
Everything he does is, as well
I hope I'm good enough
I can't seem to tell.

He treats me better
Than anyone ever has before
Respect, with real love
I couldn't expect anything more.

I don't think he realizes
How loved I feel
When you go from being treated like trash
This is something so much more real.

I just hope I can match up
To the amazing way he showers me with love
I'll try my best, I'll bend over backwards
He must be a gift from above.

I truly believe this was meant to be
As corny as that sounds
Cliche-ly, I say, fate brought us together
Our loves knows no bounds.

At least not mine.

Tick-tock of the clock
Time is running out
It feels like everything is moving quickly
I don't know what this is about.

I've lost control
Though really I never had it
Just an illusion I created
Another bad habit.

I fear getting older
I feel I'm not young enough
I want to grow up, I want to get out
Break free, a diamond in the rough.

Shine me up, sparkly
Rub down all my edges; smooth so smooth
Round off all my corners
Encourage me to move, move, move.

Push me! Shove me!
Get me going
Touch me the right way
Get the juices flowing.

Excite me, entice me!
Then burn me out
Let the wax run hot
Down, down, all about.

Change.
I hate it. I hate it.
I love it. I love it.
A love-hate relationship.

The lack of control
When change happens
Is terrifying
And nerve-wracking

But I accept everything as is
I've learned to let things go
Even though I burn hot, so hot
I let my wax flow.

Free, so free
I'd love to be
Trapped, very trapped
But now I see.

There's a *** of gold at the end of every rainbow
Though it's never found
It's a hope to grasp onto
A reason to keep your head above the water so as to not drown.

And eventually, metaphorically
I will find that *** of gold
My wax will run to the end of the wick
And everything I have will be old.

And with the old I will know
More than I've ever known
But until that I day, I must say
I have a lot, so far, that's grown.

So let the wax burn
Let the change exist
I will allow the loss of control
And the passing of time will persist.

Acceptance.
It's so hard, but so nice.

When I met you I didn't think it would be this way
In fact I had my eyes on someone else
But really that was just a step in your direction
And more help to find myself.

And when I found myself
In one all-night-long conversation of digging deep in my soul
I realized that was just a stepping stone
To where I am now, just another paid toll.

Your image had been so foggy in my mind
I knew not of who you were
And not of who you could be
Or even of the power
You had over me.

It was a gradual pull
Tugging me towards you
A look through a crowd
A brief touch while walking across a room.

As I recall now
I vaguely knew of the connection
How gravity would pull us together
Without me paying any attention.

I let you keep me
You asked so sweetly
My head told me no
But my heart disagreed.

I answered with a kiss
The one you had been craving
I let you have no more
I had secrets I was saving.

And look at where we are now
Many adventures have been had
And many more to come
There hasn't been an inch of anything bad.

I'm madly in love
Completely clumsy over you
Totally twitter-painted
With everything you are and everything you do.

A night without you is insanity
As much as it is good for me
The space is as nice as it is lonely
But that's a healthy thing to be.

I could just lay in bed with you all day
Lounging arrogantly in the ****
I enjoy it the most
But going out is good too.

And I suppose I'd probably get sick
Of lounging all the time
The rarity is so fun
And probably why it feels so nice.

I could get lost in your eyes
And stare at you forever
I swear love is like a drug...
Can we stay addicted together?

Forever.

Take my hand in yours
I'll tell you all that's in my heart
Open all my doors
And this is only the start.

Let's take on the world
I'll be your mastermind
I can't do it without you
And we've got plenty of time.

Our love can conquer anything
That's not something that I just feel
But something I know
Something that is stable and real.

I love you, I love you, I love you!
I wish I had a better phrase
I'll scream it at the top of my lungs
'Til I'm blue in the face.

But that will never entirely describe
Exactly how I feel
That's why I write all these rhymes
To express in full detail.

Don't ever let me go
Don't ever let me go
I had to say it twice
To get my point across
Once just wouldn't suffice.

I hope you know what you're getting yourself into
I know I say this a lot
And if I had the appropriate words
I'd tell you exactly what you've caught.

Me.

This is all me right here
And if you don't approve
You can **** it
Cause this is what you got yourself into.

So here I am
All my heart put into words
And as the time goes by
My emotions continue to stir.

And create something tangible
Of stability and strength
Like a rope it braids
Into a hearty and on-going length.

So let's rule the world together
Just take it over
Grand supreme exalted dictator
And your mastermind lover.

This is the happiest I've ever been
No doubt in my mind
I can't control my smiles
If only I could stop the time

Right in this moment with you
Your lips to mine
The world it stops turning
Everything is so, so.. so **** fine

And all this bubbling in my stomach
My hearts up in my throat
Not in the bad way
But the kind of way that you know:

You're in love
Everything is seen in a new light
With brighter colors
And a fresh-headed sight

I pull the good from the bad
Unlike times before
Because the happiness I had lacked
Is now prominently present, ever more.

I see that when things are down
It's only the dark side of the moon
The other half of the circle
The pain, then the pleasure comes soon.

You can't have one without the other
But with the one you see the light
In every dark corner
You see it all as right.

Love, love, love, love
So much of it right here in my heart
It covers all my pain with floral print
Showing the light in the dark.

Defeating all my battles
Climbing every rock
Though I'm getting higher
I fear the tick of the clock.

But I feel like time stops with you
Even as every day passes by
And every moment we have, or to be had
Will be amazing and divine.
