Let there be love

All around me is love;
the sun in the sky,
casting an all-seeing eye
on the world,
accentuating the beauty of the flowers, the grass, the midsummer calm.

Bouncing on the water,
the sun crystallizes the river,
bringing love to life within it
and upon it.

A cool breeze wanders lazily around,
rippling the water,
rustling the trees;
everything loves and is loved in return.

You are my sun; all the beauty in me was created by you.

Laying side by side
with our fingers entwined,
we compliment each other perfectly. Blissfully.
Sculpting each other we become one,
and yet this is not
because we want each other but because
we were meant to be together
I was made for you, and you for me,
like the stars for the sky.

The whole world was made by,
and for love, but of all
the love that surrounds us,
there is nothing greater than my love for you and
I desire nothing more than your love for me.
For what is love if it is not mutual?
What do we live for if not for love?

I live for you. I share
every breath, every thought, every heartbeat
with you.
You are the cause of every smile, every laugh,
all the happiness inside me.

When I look into your eyes I see all
the stars in the universe twinkling back at me, and
your smile is the sun; so
comforting and warm, the centre of everything,
the most important and beautiful thing in the world
