In My Eyes
He claims he is no different
nor better than any other.
What he doesn’t understand
in my eyes I see no other.
I see him being warm and tender
with a touch that melts my heart.
If it be holding my hand, caressing my cheek,
or an embrace that means so much.
I see inside him a heart possessing goodness.
Always cheerfully giving of himself.
Finding ways to pass on laughter and joy
never asking for anything in return.
I see him full of forgiveness and understanding,
in times our friendship and love are tested
with a problem that comes between us.
He’s ready to talk it out before ever leaving my sight.
I see him bestowing sincerity.
Teaching me trust when I am apprehensive.
He’s not deceitful or hypocritical
when others hide from the truth.
I see him in all his compassion
picking me up when I fall.
Giving strength, support,
and encouragment not to give up.
I see him standing tall and strong
prepared to defend and protect.
Ready to conquer whomever
dares to do me any kind of harm.
I see him pledge unconditional love
thats true and faithful.
Loving, respecting,
Ne'er wishing me to change.
I see him high on a pedestal
where all his qualities shine bright.
I can’t help but cherish them
holding them dear to my heart.
He claims he is no different
nor better than any other.
What he doesn’t understand,
in my eyes I see no other.
