The Gift

By: Denice Rochelle

I have a gift, so close your eyes
If you peek you’ll ruin the surprise
It’s wrapped carefully with adoration true
This feels like the right thing to do

For almost a year we’ve been friends and lovers
Exposing ourselves and turning toward cover
Together and apart we challenge and inspire
Simple and complex, we continue to admire

Virtue and honesty are so difficult and rare
It’s easier to deceive with nary a care
Do you already know without having to see
The gift I have for you is me?
