For a love that measures no agony in closeness
nor loss of self in touch
We so touch, and crumble under what seems like mystery
only
Love is no more mysterious then the next hour
and I am happy for that
to find the skin of it securing us from the palms of treachery
which would be forsaking this kindness and trust and delight of life
for something so fickle like what people would think or
past broken promises
or even the baggage that we have learned to let go of
just because now is the time
we live, and live joyously together
People are crazy, not us
You think I would forsake this to be blown apart by the world again? No way
I know what I have with you
I know the way my heart beats strong in your presence
I know... that for some reason I am stronger now than I have ever been
and I know you are too
and that is what this is about
finding love
finding ourselves
finding each other
when the world has lost us long ago
and expected us to survive and thrive on something much less than this
Honey,
everyday I long to be with you
even when we are together
it is the morning, noon and night time with you as my wife
with all of us as a family
that brings righteousness to my heart
and humility to my needy soul
I am in love with you, still
actually more than ever
those times of infatuation have nothing on this day
for I realize
I would not trade a thing, hard times and good to be here standing with you
as we are
and I realize
I am willing to pass through the ups and downs again, and again, and again
just as long as you are here with me
and we
keep loving~
Hugs,
