Valentine
My life with you is like the ocean in waves it comes and goes
And just below the surface love is deeper than we know
Not once have I forgotten just where we began
Or how my love still grows with each touch of your hand
As the many years have passed our love has seen its trials
But I have seen it travel the distance of many many miles
Through every raging storm of life and all that we have seen
The magic of your love has safely carried me
Here before you now I stand to tell you how I feel
With all that is within me I know this love is real
So this year for Valentine’s Day I have only this to ask
Will you be my Valentine and let this love forever last?
*Dedicated with love to my wonderful husband, David.
