The Music Of Love

One day we wake up singing

A song to a happy tune

Without a prompt or a reason

Without music or noise

Only the excitement of seeing you

Today we are getting married

Saying Yes to each other

without further ado

Love is the trail we followed

Learned each other in safety and grew

Let our ugly find itself, showed it to you

You said, Hey that's OK

I am still here for you

I learned me through you

You told me the truth

You speak to me, it is not only you

It is you and me, and we are two

There is strength in numbers

When the two are in truth

Someone to say to you

this works for me too

Love is not a show

or does it come with a map

Love's design is to teach us

And build life without holes, without traps

It is a place of safety

To speak that I am still OK

Even when I don't feel like it

Even when I am too tired to see my way

One of us is always leading

Learned partnership that way

Each day is an open conversation

Of all we can share and build, a story page by page

Nothing comes all at once

It would leave us dry and bored

Love comes in surprises

Of all we thought it could not be

Love is the surprise of our souls

When it show me, me

The more I can see of me

The more I find in you

The treasures of us as people

And adding the love in there too

Thank you for saying

when you do this it hurts me

It made me see you

and you taught me to care

As you show me how you care for you

I have learned to care for me

I find that the more I learn

I more I understand you

The greater my challenges

that eliminate the feelings of something I can not say

You opened the door of my soul

With your openness to me

You teach me to be

Without trying to be better than me

I realize there is nothing you could want

Other than to tell me the truth

I realize there is nothing I can give

Other than my purity to you

Love is invisible

Yet it is felt in its strength

It is the bond we can not see

Yet the bond of everyday

Love is not a person, a place or a thing

Love is my emotion, that I bring to each day

Love is my compass of where I go, and where I stay

Love is the open ended answer

As many questions as it presents

It is those very questions

Whose answers are fought for

And learned of

That teaches my soul

Its one main purpose

To love, honor, and live

In today, in the present

I stand before myself in completeness

As I see it in you

No fear in growing further

No lines drawn in the sand

No more saying what if....

It is here that I stand

I stand for us

The "us" we have become

The world that we built

With those that we love

The house that we fill

With our everyday of thoughts

The home that we carry

Everywhere we go

Love is not physical

You have taught me

Thank you, my love

My love's freedom

That I have come to see

Thank you, my love

We are an "us"

And still a "you" and a "me"
