I'M Always Right Here

(13 second delay)

I am your foundation, your anchor, my love
your harbor, your haven, my dear
and though death divides us 
I'm your beating heart
recall the sweet day we met, met
we both knew our bond would be forever and then
no time can destroy this love-  this sweet love
for what God has joined as one
will be, will be 
come to me when you are sad
my tomb is covered with spring's wild flowers
and I am protected by a weeping tree
oh, in my repose, I listen to the birds sing above, my dear
oh, come to me when you need rest, rest 

I am your foundation, your anchor, my love
your harbor, sweet haven, my dear
I'm always right here
I'm always right here, 
I'm always right here
I'm your beating heart, my dear

I am your foundation, your anchor, my love
your harbor, your haven, my dear
and though death divides us 
I'm your beating heart
recall the sweet day we met, met
we both knew our bond would be forever and then
no time can destroy this love-  this sweet love

I'm your foundation, your anchor, my love
your harbor, sweet haven, my dear
I'm always right here 
I'm always right here, here . . . .

Your poem practically sings! Do you realize it's beauty? I do. My husband died also. It's not easy for you. But love has its own magic that never dies. Panagiota Romios
