Never Outgrow Love

Love is fragile,
A slow plant to root
So water it with gentle words
And feed it with each tender caress

Never outgrow love

Fill each gaze since the first with that same wonder
That same breathless admiration
Make each kiss as profound as the first
Let each laugh be as bright

Never outgrow love

Have adventures, small or grand
Surprise each other
Dance in the rain
And above all…
Keep your arguments silly

Never outgrow love

Even if you grow apart
Don't be afraid to love
Even in the midst of heartbreak
Love is always stronger

Never outgrow love
