Removing Myself From the Center of Attention

sightseeing 
and it does not matter
when i see the joy in your eyes

i 
am not doing this for me
for i have been here before

instead
i am doing it for you because
you have been through it and you deserve to experience some fun and release

windowshopping
and it set your mind at ease
when he broke your heart, i wanted you to revisit the actual heart of sincerity

you
taught me the reteaching of The Golden Rule
so i decided to shower you with some type if Platinum Treatment

when 
self is removed from the spotlight for another to enjoy
the satisfaction is unexpected like a thoughtfully planned surprise party

this
in turn is my way of saying thank you for everything
and i truly appreciate all that you have done for me

believe
me when i express to you that your meaning in and to
my life means more to me than i could ever put into....a poem....
