Love is a word and feeling invented long ago
On a premonition that we would one day meet
And we give the word and the feeling true meaning
Wide awake, yet forever dreaming.
It lives in the quiet between every breath,
A promise that wins over distance and time,
In the way that your hand finds a home inside mine.
Like the ancient stars we will always align.
I see it in orbits of light in your eyes,
No longer a stranger or a distant glance,
The foundations solid when the world starts to shake.
A beautiful truth I choose in my sleep and awake.
So let the world spin in its hurried old way,
In the simple "I love you" we both get to say,
We’ve found what all poets are trying to find.
Two souls, two hearts in rhythm and forever entwined.
