How Are You So Special To Me

How are you so special to me?
The answer is short and simple.
Every action has its symbol
Along with the language you use
And that painful hidden scar and bruise.
That’s how you’re so special to me

How are you so special to me?
In around two- or three-months’ time,
You would be receiving my rhymes
As a token of gratitude.
Your care and cure make me conclude
How special you are in my heart

How are you so special to me?
I think of how I can make your day
And try my best to keep you away
From keeping your soul in torment
You would not have time to repent,
That’s how you’re so special to me

How are you so special to me?
I play with words that delve so deep
Inside your heart even while asleep
Your face will not dry from teardrops
Your soft spot never comes to a stop
That’s how you’re so special to me

How are you so special to me?
Well, I believe you’re still here right?
These rhymes are proof that see your light
They would not keep your sprite out of sight
It’s my response to fight or flight
Over my gift I’d never had

How are you so special to me?
This verse has no effect when sane
But hits you when you cry in vain
Take this as some free therapy
Self-reflection makes you happy
That’s how you’re so special to me

Really cool how you weave that “painful hidden scar” into something tender, it gives the poem such a genuine heartbeat. Loved how honesty makes the whole thing feel like a quiet confession.
