Like how a heart needs a beat.<\/p>\n
And a sentence needs words to be complete.<\/p>\n
Like how a lock needs a key.<\/p>\n
And a ship needs the sea.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That is how I need you.<\/p>\n
Without you, I don’t know what I’d do.<\/p>\n
You like the peanut butter to my bread,<\/p>\n
And the brains that goes inside my head.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You know when I’m happy and when I’m sad.<\/p>\n
Or when I’m disappointed and when I’m mad.<\/p>\n
You always there to wipe my tears.<\/p>\n
And cuddle me at night, to take away my fears.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You walk along side me during my toughest times.<\/p>\n
You are my number one partner in crime.<\/p>\n
You’ll forever remain in my heart.<\/p>\n
Even during the times that we are apart.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I just wanted you to know this<\/p>\n
Because this one is for you, Chris.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
