When I was young,
I wasn’t looking for commitment,
it was all about me,
loneliness.
But you shattered,
this block of ice,
my defenses,
chiseled away,
stone cold,
falling in pieces.
It was your smile,
stronger than the sun, beaming
bringing life,
warmth,
melted,
so I could live again,
freedom,
and you said, “I’m melting too”,
no more hiding,
your embrace,
the two into one,
now always one,
stronger.
Love flowing,
from the river.
You are – My Love.

Thank you Suzy! We have loved each other a long time, and it only gets better! Love changes over the years, but it grows deeper, and stronger, as long as you work at it!
Gorgoues, it’s so inspiring to read about the true love you and your wife have for each other.
