To Alex

" Birthday"

On this day, August nineteenth, 
The year-nineteen seventy sixth,
You came in this world with a cry, 
Right then, you didn't know why. 

Many people are born on that day

Many are famous or not, in a way,

A lot of them happy, some angry or sad,

Some busy or lazy, or something like that.

Some try to do better, some really don’t care

Some constantly whine that life is not fair.

But you are so different, you always stand out,

And I didn’t need 37 years to find out.

From the very first moment I saw you, I knew

There is no one that would ever compare to you.

You make me so happy, when I feel sad

And nobody ever did it like that.

You hold my hand when I feel I can fall

You listen to all my heartaches, big or small.

And that is all that anyone wants in their life

To find someone like you by their side.

It’s a good thing I’ve found you before,

‘cause there aren’t as many as you anymore.
And I feel lucky beyond compare
That I have someone like you and you care.

I don’t care if you’re perfect or not,
I don't care what everyone else ever thought.
I know were are meant for each other, it is true,

I don’t care, as long as I have YOU.

Sometimes there are no stars in the sky

But I promise you that I will try

To show you every day till I die

That nobody loves you better than I.
