I love you because
The mystery of your being
Fascinates me.
Every day you are
A rabbit pulled out of a hat
That seemed empty before.
And this is no trick
I know it is just you
Without effort or ruse.
Perhaps any soul
That let me get this close
Would have this same magic?
But that doesn't matter
(And this is like magic)
For I know you are mine,
Such a balm for my soul
That at times I forget
The wounded warrior.
