Let me be the cushion on your back
at the end of a long day;
let me be the ice pack
to numb your headaches away.
Use me as your diversion;
let me sing you songs
with your favorite renditions;
play me all night long
till your rest your eyes
then I will sing you lullabies.
Let me be the sunlight
peeking into your window,
let my sweet little ray write
over your sorrows
with poems of love
and of bright days ahead.
Look above!
High atop your bed,
I am the canopy
embracing your galaxy.
In truth, I am small,
with a voice tiny and faint.
I cannot be your all;
I am no match against
the offerings of the world
that you most deserve.
But I am true to my word;
for you, I will serve
as the fount of your smiles
for as long as you deem worthwhile.
Fount of Your Smiles
