Priceless

CATEGORY

It's a natural reaction for
One to smile with joy and happiness
At the sight of someone we love.
It's a spark that ignites deep
In the confines of our hearts
And sets off a chain reaction
Of events inside us sending a
Tidal wave of emotions
Coursing through our veins.
But have you ever wondered
What the value of
A human life actually is?
What it really means to
Have someone who
Loves and needs you.
Can one put a price
On the life of another?
No. You can't.
Because you are priceless.
You weren't born with a
Dollar sign birthmark on you.
There's no amount of gold
Silver or diamonds that
Can hold a candle to
What you mean to me.
You are a uniquely created
Gift from God and if
I had to count the ways
Or the number of times
You made me smile,
I'd lose count.
You are loved and accepted
Just the way you are.
This is only one of the many
Reasons why you are priceless.
So when there are
Circumstances that pertain to
The essential lifeblood
Of your existence,
We are obligated by
Human nature to ensure
The continuation of
Your well being
For as long as humanly possible.
Nothing in this world
Means more to me than you.
Not even life itself.
So give this some thought,
There are those who are willing
To do and care for you
Like no one else will.
And the only ones who will
Are those who know
Your true worth.

Priceless.
