My Better Half

by 4ever4u   Jan 24, 2007


How can I put into words how much you mean to me
You encompass everything that a woman should be
You are a comfort and a blessing to my troubled soul
When I was falling apart you made me whole

I was like a lost ship sailing out at sea
But you stretched forth your hand and held on to me
You brought me in safely onto your peaceful shore
You are my anchor that keeps me tightly secure

You helped me overcome my struggles and fear
Throughout the ups and down you were always there
Not for a moment you stopped showing me how much you care
You helped carry my burden when it was too much to bare

When I grew weak your strength made me stand
When I had doubts you helped me understand
I couldn't do it all alone so you gave me a helping hand
from something small we built it into something grand

You taught me what it is to be a man
When I said I can't you insisted that I can
Your strength and courage is what pulled me thorough
You have never failed to come to my rescue

You made me aware of my immaturity
That it was time to accept my responsibility
You had confidence in me that I had the ability
To make all my dreams become a reality

You guided me when I was going astray
Because of that I am the person I am today
I am thankful more than words can ever say
You are my better half and I wouldn't want it any other way
