Tales of Love and confusion 5

What me, really?
There are marvellous men,
There are wonderful women
Yet you stand before me,
What me, really?
Elders wiser,
Youths stronger
Yet you stand before me,
What me, really?
I think I’m not honest
I know I’m not always true,
Yet you stand before me,
What me, really?
I’ve hidden in the shadows,
I’ve cowered in the light,
Yet you stand before me,
What me, really?
I might let you down
I may not see it through
Yet you stand before me,
What me, really?
I see your smile,
I hear your words
That’s why you are perfect
Yes you, really

In your lap a parcel
wrapped in sunlight and gold,
how will you unwrap the
present that is you,
happily, excitedly?
