she was my flower,
she made my heart stand still,
she is my flower,
my daffodil.

I am her wall,
so sturdy and tall,
I am her wall,
cracks and all.

She is my will,
my power to live,
she is my will,
she keeps my heart active.

I am her bow,
she my arrow,
I am her buffalo,
she my doe.

She is my sunshine,
so bright and warm,
I am her clouds,
just before a storm.

finally,I'm her planet,
she my star,
we both love each other,
but only from afar.
