Alonza

November fifteen, twenty-twenty-two

The day that started our forever with you

My hard-working man, keeping us secure

My patient protector, your heart is so pure

You provide the peace, you understand my soul

I never knew I could love someone and feel this whole

The way I love you, it runs so deep

You're the only promise that I want to keep

Alonza, not a millisecond passes by

Without you running through my mind

It's crazy, but I miss you even when we're right here

I just need you closer than close, my dear

Your love is unconditional, so strong and true

And I am forever dedicated to you

My comfort zone is resting right upon your chest

A kiss upon my forehead puts my world to rest

I soak up every single "I love you" that you say

You love me for exactly who I am today

And when I need the truth, even if it stings

You tell me what I need to hear, the balance that it brings

You never cease to amaze me, baby

Just when I think you aren't paying attention lately

You step right in, you show up and show out

Reminding me what this marriage is about

Oh Alonza, not a millisecond passes by

Without you running through my mind

It's crazy, but I miss you even when we're right here

I just need you closer than close, my dear

Your love is unconditional, so strong and true

And I am forever dedicated to you
