Dear true love
I'm a writer without any words
I'm a story that nobody heard
When I'm without you
I am a voice
I am a voice without any sound
I'm a treasure map that nobody found
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm a lantern without any light
I'm a boxer much too afraid to fight
When I'm without you
So with this ring
May you always know one thing
What little that I have to give
I will give it all to you
You're my one true love
I am a memory
I'm a memory bent out of shape
A childhood already bruised with age
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm an artist without any paint
I'm the deal that everyone breaks
When I'm without you
I am a whisper
I'm a secret that nobody keeps
I'm a dreamer of someone else's dreams
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm a farewell that came all too soon
I'm a hand-me-down that dreams of being new
When I'm without you
I'm a writer without any words
I'm a story that nobody heard
When I'm without you
I am a voice
I am a voice without any sound
I'm a treasure map that nobody found
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm a lantern without any light
I'm a boxer much too afraid to fight
When I'm without you
So with this ring
May you always know one thing
What little that I have to give
I will give it all to you
You're my one true love
I am a memory
I'm a memory bent out of shape
A childhood already bruised with age
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm an artist without any paint
I'm the deal that everyone breaks
When I'm without you
I am a whisper
I'm a secret that nobody keeps
I'm a dreamer of someone else's dreams
When I'm without you
Dear true love
I'm a farewell that came all too soon
I'm a hand-me-down that dreams of being new
When I'm without you
I’ve waited a hundred years
But I’d wait a million more for youNothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do
If I had only felt the warmth within your touch
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough
Well I would have known
What I was living for all along
What I’ve been living for
Your love is my turning page
Where only the sweetest words remain
Every kiss is a cursive line
Every touch is a redefining phrase
I surrender who I’ve been for who you are
For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours
Well I would have known
What I’ve been living for all along
What I’ve been living for
Though we’re tethered, to the story we must tell
When I saw you, well I knew we’d tell it well
With the whisper, we will tame the vicious scenes
Like a feather, bringing kingdoms to their knees
My soul was made to love you. Swimming in a
sea of confusion,waiting, waiting, till He thought
we were ready- burnished by this life. Now that
I have found you, we are joined in this life and
in each one that follows, for all of eternity. My
heart was made to be loved by you. You make
it whole, complete it. You are my puzzle piece.
I have never just trusted... until you. I have never
invited anyone inside... until you. I have never been
touched so gently I had to cry... until you. You are
my proof that I am not alone. It will never be better
than the first moment knowing you....and every
moment that comes after...until the world stops
turning, and into the ether.

Breathe out so I can breathe you in
(New Zealand Maori sharing in the

I give my life to you, and accept the gift
of your life with a grateful and humble heart.
HIS POV: Oh lover!
In what light have I missed this life?
Each day your unfettered grace surrounds the light
The sweet soft essence of love day or night,
available for the asking, heart mine for the taking
your essence bring me life and your beauty surrounds the sweet ambrosia of your love and submission
You brought me back from dark Acheron's ferry
and with the light and beauty of Venus you enriched the fertile plains of our love
You lift me from the frail, weak shadow of mere mortal man
your love surrounds, and builds me into passionate form
My heart and life are yours to own,
Each ray of the sun a gift to honor our commitment
My greatest treasure radiant in love... always and forever.

Thanks so much, Roz! It was most awesome :) Doesn't my Daddy have a most eloquent voice?
DeleteOur best wishes for a wonderful Anniversary :)
ReplyDeleteAlthough I think you two could spend your anniversary on an iceberg in the middle of the Arctic ocean, and you would be happy as long as you were together - what a magical relationship.
May that magic never end.
