The You I See

The you I see is pure and true

Your warrior within is always shining through

Strong enough to show how vulnerable you can be

Is just some of the you I happen to see

Never a harsh word has ever been spoken

Truth is the seal for a friendship that's never broken

Mutual respect for who we are and what we say

Inspiring one another in every kind of way

Going for the gold and never settling for less

Always finding clever ways to deal with stress

The brightness from your smile lights up your face

But what's inside shows your true grace

Too real to be fake, like a dream come true

This is what I see when I look at you

You inspired me to be the me you see

All because I truly like the you I see!
