S H E // is my storm and my sunshine combined,
A flurry of feelings, such a beautiful mind.
Defiant, yet tender; hostile, yet sweet,
A tangle of chaos, my favourite heart that beats.

Her laughter so precious, pure and unbound,
But her will - a mountain, unshaken and profound.
And even though god help me, she tests my grace,
In moments of fury, my grounding is her face.

I know she’s not broken, just learning to grow,
Her world is confusing and there’s so much to know.
But when she breathes fire, I feel I might break,
And I wrestle with guilt for each harsh move I make.

She pushes, I pull, we crash then we burn,
Yet somehow, through chaos, we both try to learn.
Her wildness is her power, her flame and her fight,
A voice carving a path for her future so bright.

I soak in her spirit, so messy and real,
I live for the spark in her soul, I hope she’ll forever feel.
She is my teacher, though I often forget,
It’s in the hardest of moments, she needs my calm to reset.

So I’ll keep showing up, even when I get it wrong,
To be what she needs, a place she’ll always belong.
For even when I’m depleted, I know in my core,
Loving her fiercely is worth all the hard,
All the more.
