Today

I spent it with her.

Every minute

Every second

Was worth it

We drove around

Ate ice cream

Played games.

It was perfect.

I held her in my arms

I held her hand

I secretly gave gently pecks as I whispered to her

I picked her up when there was a puddle to walk over

I hugged her tightly when she shivered

I did every possible thing to make her happy and safe.

Today

I gave her a teddy bear

I smile when she said she loved it

I laughed as she nearly cried when she dropped it

I held her against me and told her

That I'll buy her another one.

She looked up at me

With her watery eyes

I looked back

With eyes filled with love.

She tip toes

As I stare at the ground

I felt her breath on my cheek

I felt her cheek against mine

I felt her lips pressed gently against my skin

As she held my face in her soft warm hands

She smiled

And said thank you.
