For Claire

For Claire
I love the way that you make me
the way you make me smile
with your arms wrapped around me
we snuggle close for a while
Everyone walking by
knows that you're with me
they look at me through jealous eyes
and i'm laughing; "hey, she chose me!"
Your fingers entwined with my own
we walk anywhere, everywhere, together
as long as i'm close to you
i know i'll be happy forever
