Can’t Love You Enough

By Swabha Takshak


I look at you, and I see someone I can rely on
Someone who gave me strength, someone whom no one could prey upon
And I can’t love you enough…

I see you, and I see strength
Of moral, of character, keeping negativity at arm’s length
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me through all my lows
Through uncertainties and hardships and when life dealt blows
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me when my confidence declined
But you made sure that I wasn’t left behind
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me when I was broken
Consoling me with words spoken/unspoken
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me when the world seemed bleak and dark
Filling me with hope, reigniting the spark
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me when I fell
Encouraging me to get up again, telling me that all is well
And I can't love you enough…

You were there for me through all my highs
Celebrating with me, cheering me on to new heights
And I can't love you enough…

You were there with me to celebrate my success
Being happy for me and my progress
And I can't love you enough…

I know who you were, I know what you have become
What you have gone through, what you have overcome
And I can't love you enough!!!!
