You Are

by michellelilith   Aug 18, 2010


You are my King for you rule all of my lands and you have the power to launch wars, for which I would lay down my life.
You are my Queen for I bow to your beauty, grace, and majesty.
You are my Princess for I offer all of my riches for your hand in marriage and I would defend your honor to the death.
You are my Calliope, my Erato, my Melpomene, my Euterpe, for you inspire my words, my art, my thought.
You are my friend for you understand my past, believe in my future, and accept me as I am.
You are my grace for you are elegant in form, motion, manner, and action.
You are my sanctuary for in you my soul takes refuge.
You are my lover for ecstasy is at the tips of your outstretched arms, entwined in those arms we breathe as one and rise to such heights as never know before.
You are my hope, for another breath, for another heart beat, another day of life.
I will always love you, for the rest of this life and into the next.
