My Guiding Light
Have I ever told you
that I'd be lost without you?
Your love is my guiding light;
without which, I would be blind.
Fate favoured me
the day we met;
and I feel forever blessed.
Do you know that when I sleep
you sweeten my dreams;
defying reality
on the wings of hope?
Until I dined with you;
I supped on guile and suspicion
and defecated disbelief;
in heaps of frustration
and anger.
Are you aware you saved my life?
I would have ended it
long ago;
but for you.
I was a nobody, just another toad
with many faults.
But you saw past my warts;
and through your eyes,
you let me see
that I was a good man.
Thank you for believing in me.
