I love the look on
your face when I kiss your
cheek -
The sincerity in your eyes.
It’s amazing how you make
my knees feel weak,
Without having to try.
It’s amazing how love can be this strong,
And tested through time.
I am certain I am right where I belong,
being yours; you are mine.
Thank you for this journey, that’s been so sweet.
It’s bring a tear to my eye,
Darling, just how you swept me off my feet.
I’ll love you til the end of time.
Let’s make the best of this
(every hug and every kiss)
I’m yours – you are mine
Forever, past the end of time
This love is strong
In your arms, I forever belong
No other just can’t compare -
To you and the love we share.
So tonight, wrap me in your arms
In total safety, away from harm.
You have my heart and total trust.
I love you with an emotion stronger than love.
Thank you for the laughter and love.
Thank you for the joy and memories.
You had to go,
but you are still inside me.
I try not to be sad,
or let myself continue to cry.
You wouldn’t want me to see me that way –
That I can’t deny.
You were willing to always give of yourself.
You gave so many so much.
I miss your kind gentle voice,
I miss your loving touch.
Thank you for helping me to understand –
even in your last days.
That life is meant to be lived -
and I will honor you that way.
Sometimes I wake up and I think Today will be a good day.
Then life brings it’s scorn and folly – sending troubles my way.
But as a swan, I let it all slide off my back – today I will choose.
Life is what I make it – and sorrow – you will lose.
The smile on my face – it cannot be take away.
I have decided – you can’t bring me down. . . Today will be a good day.
I wear my inpenetrable shield
as a soldier wears his armor,
or that of a knight defending his life.
This shield, I will carry
til I am dust in the ground.
Merely a hushed memory
on some old friend’s clouded mind.
Happy and carefree,
my fool’s hands grip this thing,
swallowing every sour pain
to be forgotten by my hexed mind.
My closest companion
is forced to be my enemy
For darkened clouds inevitably clear
for the sun.
At day’s end, my shaking hands grasp my shield.
It is my only hope, my soul’s death
Though it is the scorn of my life,
it enables my next breath.
I think of the feeling of your warm skin against mine,
your soft lips,
the way your look at me with your loving yet piercing eyes.
And I know I am in love
Not some fleeting kind of emotion most would associate with the word -
but real love,
the kind that’s been tested and yet only grows with time.
My life before you was only a prologue to the bigger story that I am now part of.
The days before I knew your love have become but a hazy, faraway dream.
Waking up to you each morning,
late nights filled with laughter,
the intoxicating love and happiness you gift me each day,
are the most gracious blessings my life has ever known.
