To Love and Be Loved By You

"TO LOVE AND BE LOVED BY YOU"

Shine like the stars
which light the night,
filling your love's
life with your hearts
glow

Be to your love a
masterpiece, she
will forever in her
life want to hold

For what you possess
is truly special, and
only comes alive from
deep within

So love the one who
adores you immensely,
so her feelings on
your love will depend

Learn to love this
love who loves you,
learn to cherish her
greatly each new day

Learn to hold back
hurtful words, so not
to cause her sadness
in any way

Learn to always tell her
what's on your mind.
especially if it's only
her of whom you dream...

You'll find she'll love
you deeper in endearing
ways, much deeper than
what it seems

For the love which she
possesses only, comes
to life because of the
bliss you alone give

Shower her with all the
love in your hearts power,
so many years together,
you'll happily live.

( For Deborah Ann)
