To my Heavenly Father, God

Love like I’ve never known.
Touches me with gentle caress,
Calms me with loving tenderness,
And soothes me in my distress.
Love like I’ve always dreamed,
Like I’ve always hoped, but never in my reach.
Love of a father to a son, I’ve wished for,
You gently mould me, You gently teach.
Thank you for being in my life.
You’ve always loved me, even from before I knew.
Thank you for being my joy,
For protecting me, watching as I grew.
You are the love of my life.
The one true love that will always be there.
You are the soul of me.
You’re all that I am, on my heart your mark I will bear.
I want to be with you,
To feel your love as you envelope me.
You are the maker of my world.
You’re everything, and all, that I will be.
