Like fire and ice, like sunshine and rain

Like the cooling relief to the hot, burning pain

Like the grounded man out of all the insane

You know how much I love you


Like gray in the core, not black and white

Like the first stream of dawn in the heartbreaking night

Like the man with the sword, never losing his fight

You know how much I love you


Like an exquisite rose out of fields of weeds

Like the sky is the limit, the sky he exceeds

Like temptation to follow, my honey leads

You know how much I love you


Like the blindness I hold, you are my eyes

Like the shoulder I drench in the midst of my cries

Like the love I embrace goes beyond all the skies

You know how much I love you

…

A lot.

I originally wrote this for my dad on father's day, but then just changed the idea of who it's directed to to the reader's choice.
