As delicate and priceless as a vase
Just the right size for my embrace
I hold you close and breath your scent
Hair soft as a cloud, Heaven sent
You did it yourself, you proudly tell me
In a voice filled with so much glee
How easy it is to bring you joy
I give you my time, love, and a few toys
None of that ever feels like a chore
As long as I can hear you laugh some more
When you smile, I can't help but do the same
The way your eyes light up like a pair of flames
Your lips, one touch can make a man red as a beet
Unpainted, and yet so pink and sweet
You're so full of wonder, your mind is open
Not yet stolen by the system and broken
My skin, job, religion, they don't matter to you
Am I safe? Am I fun? That's what matters to you
When something goes wrong, I can't lie to you
Fake smiles are a mask you can see right through
So what if you're not as big as your sister yet
And I'm old enough for your mother to wed?
Older ladies simply can't compare
To the goddess in you, the answer to my prayers
