Your smile is one of few,
And with happiness it fills me;
Many times the earth has passed the sun,
And almost six now you've been with me.
My love has grown to bounds,
As the sea goes to infinity --
Waves have crashed and thunder roared
But love's a sturdy boat with deep affinity.
My love is strong resolve
And is firm as cliffs of stone,
Shaped smoothly over time
By the sprinkling of your love.
Gentle rain falls daily
Through kisses that you give to me;
These are gifts of love
And raise my spirit endlessly.
Against all time our earthly love is short
If we think of life as fleeting,
And limited to flesh and bone in being.
But love is one soul and ageless
Its essence melded into flame,
Forged in fire and weightless
As one spirit with no frame.
Love is a priori, existing on its own
And will be here always
Reflecting through our bones.
Life in flesh is just a speck
Of what our love will be --
It will not die in time
But burn as one eternally.
To hear your voice i'd travel
Until my feet could move no more,
As flowers turn to sunlight
My love would open every door.
And if our bodies fade
And our minds cease to think,
I'd travel through all time
To find you next to me.
