Giving You The Best That I Got

Love makes us whole

Giving You The Best That I Got

In the quiet of the morning light,

When shadows flee and hearts take flight,

I gather all my strength, my soul,

To give you love that makes us whole.

Through storms that rage and skies that break,

Through choices hard and paths we take,

I hold this promise, firm and true,

To give the best of me to you.

A love that's woven, thread by thread,

Through every word that's softly said,

Through laughter shared, through tears we’ve cried,

A steadfast flame, our hearts' true guide.

When doubts arise, as clouds might form,

I’ll be your shelter in the storm.

No fear, no trial, will pull apart

This gift of love, my boundless heart.

I’ll give you kindness when you're weak,

A soothing balm when words can’t speak.

I’ll be the anchor when you drift,

A steady hand, your spirit’s lift.

Through fleeting days and years that run,

Under moonlit skies or golden sun,

This vow I make, in whispers deep,

Is one my soul will always keep.

In every smile, in every glance,

In every step of life’s great dance,

I’ll give you all, my every part,

My hopes, my dreams, my beating heart.

The best I’ve got is more than gold,

It’s warmth to keep you through the cold.

It’s trust unyielding, faith alive,

The fire that helps us both survive.

When darkness tries to steal our light,

I’ll stand beside you, hold you tight.

For love is bold, and love is strong,

And we’ll endure, where we belong.

In giving all, I’ve found my place,

A mirror held to your embrace.

For what I give comes back anew,

A gift of love that blooms with you.

So here I stand, my soul laid bare,

A sacred pledge beyond compare.

No fear, no doubt, no shadows cast,

This love we’ve built will always last.

Through life's great waves, through trials unknown,

You’ll never face them all alone.

For every heartbeat, every thought,

I’m giving you the best I’ve got.

In moments small, in gestures grand,

Through fleeting grains of time's soft sand,

This truth will stand, through all that’s wrought:

I’m giving you the best I’ve got.

And though the years may test and turn,

And bridges built may fall or burn,

I’ll build them back, with care, with grace,

For love like ours time can't erase.

Each day anew, my heart will sing,

To you, my love, my everything.

For in your eyes, I’ve found my lot:

To give you all, the best I’ve got.

Thank you for reading!
