Within Her Eyes

Within her eyes, I see myself there
That youthful self with golden hair
Strong and ambitious and oh so young
Climbing my ladder rung by rung

The funny thing is I see her too
That image of perfection I did woo
Yet these eyes they see her still
Spirited and lovely with iron will

The years can't fade the love we cherish
A flower suspended that never can perish
I love this woman, I share with you my truth
We ride waves of forever and eternal youth.
