I have heard you laugh, loudly, at your own jokes, and the jokes of others that they did not know were jokes I have seen you seeing others smile. "That is a beautiful smile" I agree with you for a while
and look at you again. Insane, even outright mad; I've made you cry.
Not my proudest achievement, nevertheless a testament
of I move you alright. Bright, I've seen you glow; brighter, the people you shine for When you list the memories you cherish, and I find myself in it; I mean it when I say; you've already given me enough happiness to grin for eternity. Don't be surprised, strangers, if you see me smile and don't know why.
Chances are, neither do I. I have felt your hand slide, almost slip right out of mine. Defeated tactics, failed tighter grips, would not get to mourn as you would caress my hair and ask me if all is well. I have made you smile and immediately doubted if you'd still smile if I hadn't cracked that joke. All the happiness that you carry must leak at times.
Rhymes that your words are; makes me feel like a poet. I have held you in my arms, which is how I developed a desire to be strong.
I have lived a little with you, and that is how I know a lifetime is just so few.
