Teddy Bear

By: Valerie Michael Ingle

Like a teddy bear, you're nice and cuddly soft,
I know now if I had you, I’d be better off.
Like a teddy bear, you're nice and cuddly white,
I wish I had the chance to hold you every night.
What would I do without you? That I cannot say.
I wish you were here to keep me warm each day.
I could tell you how much I love you
But then it might not matter,
At least when I say you're cute
I get the impression you’re flattered.
I don't expect you to love me
I don't even know if you care,
As long as you know you’re my teddy bear.
I never dreamed one smile could fill my world
With warmth and light,
Until your smile made all my days
So beautiful and bright.
I never realized someone could change my life
Until you showed me your strength,
Your tender touch.
I never thought love could be this endless,
Deep, and true,
Until I gave my heart and all my love to you,
My darling dear, my TEDDY BEAR.
