A compliment

Christina8

Never needed a compliment from you

'cause I get them all the time.

I don't need a hug or a kiss

'cause I get them too--so sublime.

 

I'm never in want of anything

that comes straight from your heart.

You've fulfilled that quota and

more right from the start.

 

Sure there's been bumps in the road.

But you've never withheld affection.

One thing I've never feared

from you is rejection.

 

I can only hope that I can

reciprocate what you've given to me.

If I can make you half as joyful

as you make me, I'd die happily.

    We all love to be appreciated. It is also extremely important in a relationship not to be taken for granted. Nicely done.
