I cannot give you everything you want,
I'm not a one-stop shop.
But I will offer you everything you need,
Someone who will love you unconditionally.
I will not give you all my time,
Because I am mine, and I am His, before I am yours.
But I will give you something precious,
My trust that you'll have to carefully earn.
I will not build my world around you,
But together we will build our world,
With God's grace at the center.
I can offer you nothing less than genuine happiness,
I can offer you my utmost honesty,
I can offer you my faithfulness and loyalty,
I can offer you a kind of love that has been on the rough,
And now, more indestructible  than diamond. 💎
