Throughout your entire life I have been standing beside you For I have been in love with you Long before our eyes first locked I’ve felt contentment in your essence A lifetime in the depths of my spirit I knew your first words ever spoken to me Long before your voice captured me Looked upon myself through your eyes Bathing in your beauty through my own The love of your touch comforted me As I closed my eyes and wrapped you in thought Everyday passing you accepted me As I gave everything of myself to you I never doubted what I knew as truth That inevitably our paths would cross Forever changing to the reality that is you From what I had always held…a dream
