Unexpected Love

How quickly love can appear

My precious one
How could I have known
That the power to create
Could be such a rush?
All the feelings you created
Within me were more than
I ever expected.
To feel that you were a part of me
And I a part of you
Was amazing.
Knowing you were there
Depending on me for your life
Made me want to protect you
And give you all you deserved.
The day I lost you
Will never be forgotten
But I wonder
My precious one
How could you love someone
You never had a chance to touch?
