I LOVE YOU.

Goldfinch60



I awake in the morning

My lover by my side,

We cuddle and kiss

And say those three words,

We say “I LOVE YOU” to each other,

The most important words,

Most important words in our life.

Our love is so strong,

Where did it come from?

That love abounds,

Abounds in all we do

And we just do not understand,

Understand why it has happened,

Why it has happened to us,

Happened to us at our age.

We both had love before,

Love for many years

With husband and wife,

But this is different

And it is so wonderful.

So each day our first words,

First words to each other are,

“I LOVE YOU”.

And each day our last words,

Last words before going to sleep are,

“I LOVE YOU”.

                        Such an incredible piece of music you have chosen. The power of the organ almost a metaphor for the power of your love for each other. Beautiful words, beautiful life together.
