Love For Me

Love is the blue rainbow caught in a moonstone Shining fragments caught in the light Bursting out like an open heart bearing its soul Each colour promising a new delight, a new adventure together Only you can see it, only you can understand Love is the precious pearl Worn by the Lady of the Sea in her eternal dance on the waves Kept close and treasured, an intimacy of perfect joy You are my shell, protecting and warming me from the cold ocean floor Love is the depths of the emerald green sea Rippled but calm, deep and sometimes dangerous Crashing waves bringing excitement to the steady shore Always there, depths unknown and only sometimes glimpsed at Love is the giant oak in the ancient forest Each bump and wrinkle in the bark a shared story Every branch and twig a new direction Always joined and held together, rooted in the rich soil Feeding it with new dreams and hopes Love is the highest mountain Exhilarating and fresh, ancient and reliable on the horizon Steep but rewarding, and never boring Every twist and turn in the path, every pebble you stand on Leads you somewhere new Together, the same goal insight, shared ideals and aspirations Love is my world All that is around me All that is inside of me The silver moon in the dark blue sky knows it The sun riding on the clouds, waking the world up in the morning knows it Love opens up my senses to every drop of dew To every shooting star, to every blade of grass and mossy glade My joy feels brighter, my pain easier to bear Love is my brand new day My dark, silent night Love for me, is you.
