When I meet her, I’ll tell her

That the world belongs to her

That when she closes her eyes and dreams

To know that she is the one

Who will achieve the impossible

I’ll declare that the sky is not the limit for her

That there are no ceilings, glass or concrete,

That she can't shatter

I'll remind her that her greatest weapons

Are her words and thoughts

And she can fight with her fists

But she'll win with her mind

I'll explain that she will see the world

Through sharpened eyes,

And sometimes she won't understand

Why other people see what they do 

But she will have the power to show them

Colours and shapes they didn't know existed

I'll hold her and tell her that I've been missing a piece of my heart

And she stuck her hand into my chest and she mended me

Before she could even move or speak

I’ll say that I’ve known her

since the sky was hollow

and the universe stood still

And that there is no greater honour

Than living a lifetime that intersects with hers

I will say that perfection

Isn't a goal a human can achieve

But my rules are different

And you will always be perfect to me
