The Perfect Gift
You have given me
the most wonderful prize.
One long desired, but considered unatainable.
One coveted intensely,
but concealed, fearful of rejection.
The one thing I had hoped
to receive all along.
I thought and pondered many hours
about how great it would be
to possess such an item as this.
I didn't think it was
ever an option for me.
Something placed too far
out of my reach,
just beyond my fingertips.
Not meant for me.
I now know I have
been given the perfect gift...
Your love.
