Being with you my love, has taught me many
things.
That life is full of love and hope, no matter what.
That my faith was stronger than I knew.
That my heart was no longer dead.
That hope still stands firm and strong no matter what is said.
That starry nights and rippling creeks are fantasies fulfilled.
That life is what you make of it.
That all things can be healed.
That love rekindled grows deep and full
It filled my heart with peace.
It flowed through miles and miles of land.
It flowed through time and space.
You reminded me that faith can grow and fill one's soul with light
You filled my heart with gladness.
You made my spirit bright.
You gave me back my faith in Man,
You gave me back my courage,
To do the things that I had quit because, I'd become discouraged.
I love you, my dear, with all my heart, my body and my soul.
I want to be beside you, love, so that our love can grow.
I want to always be together, standing side by side.
I want your arms around me when I need a place to hide.
I want my hand in yours,
I need our hearts entwined,
I hope that all I give you will hold you by my side.
I want to be your best friend, your lover and your mate.
I want to be beside you for the rest of my life.
