I yearn for you

How I long to learn the poetry of your heart
to hear the words that make you
How I yearn to add my own to yours
so our songs become one
A joyous union of happiness and love

How I long to learn the depths of your mind
to understand who you are
How I yearn to be a part of you
so our thoughts are like one
A meeting of minds and ideas

How I long to know your strength
to know how to keep you moving
How I yearn to walk with you
so we can journey together
A life spent travelling forward as one

How I long to grow old with you
to know all that you are
How I yearn to be by your side forever
Our lives as one
A life spent as one together forever.
