All of my heart.

 The smile that melts my heart,

I always knew you were a class apart,

Every moment with you is magical,

Conversations are honest and natural.

With your grace you never fail to mesmerize,

With your melodious voice, you always entice. 

To be loved by you is truly my pleasure

Indeed I will always love you beyond measure.

Through happiness and grief you are with me,

Together, a brighter side we will see.

To be with you is a dream come true,

Forever grateful to the day I met you.

Finding Silver Linings.

 It all began in a playful girl of six,

A disease that put her kidneys in a fix,
An rare entity with no known cure,
At every step in diagnosis, the future was obscure.

The once bubbly child was now quiet and wary;
After all, daily pricks and injections were scary.
She quietly swallowed the innumerable pills,
After all, it's a temporary solution to her ills.

But as days progressed, the kidneys only went from bad to worse,
With poverty being an additional curse,
We hoped they would find luck elsewhere,
But alas, no one else seemed to care about her welfare.

With meagre funds and slim hopes we started out,
In spite of all fears and unknown doubt,
On the unknown journey we embarked,
It is unprecedented, naysayers remarked,
Yet with no other alternative in sight,
We took the plunge into what felt right.

Childhood is meant to be free of worry and pain,
Brightened by sunshine, not dampened by rain,
The road ahead is long and tiring,
But for a little girl and her family, its a chance to keep smiling.
