You Arre Mine, I Am Yours

Your are mine
I am yours
Not a possessive noun
that expresses property, 
but a meaningful word
declaring our decision
to share the best we have--
to listen, to honor,
to understand,
to cheer each other,
being who we are,

You are mine
I am yours.
Together life is lovelier.
