My Prize

I wish I could find the words
That describe my hearts desires
The way it beats solely for you
And aches when you're not near

I wish there were enough words
To explain to you these thoughts
That revolve only around you
Every moment of every day

A thousand sunsets couldn't compare
Nor the feeling of sand between my toes
The smell of endless frangipanis
Or the beauty of a cloudless night

I never imagined something so indescribable
If you'd have asked me I'd never have guessed
Someone so imperfectly perfect would be
Someone so perfectly right for me

The way you whisper in my ear
And your smile melts my heart
The way you're arms have become home
And your touch leaves me weak

You're everything and so much more
The best thing I never thought would be mine
My prize for holding on for so long
My angel and my hope for so much more.
