Invisible Chain

“INVISIBLE CHAIN”


HUSBANDS SOMETIMES CALL THEIR WIVES
     THEIR “BALL & CHAIN”
IF THAT WERE TRUE IN OUR CASE
     THEN THE “CHAIN” WOULD BE INVISIBLE.

STARTING FROM THE RING I PLACED ON YOUR FINGER
     LEADING STRAIGHT TO MY HEART.

FOR IT WILL NEVER CONSTRICT OR RESTRAIN
     ONLY REASSURE AND REAFFIRM
          MY LOVE FOR YOU.

I WILL NEVER WALK BEHIND OR IN FRONT OF YOU,
      BUT WILL ALWAYS WALK BESIDE YOU.

THRU GOOD TIMES AND BAD
     THIS “CHAIN” HOLDS STEADY.


SO, WHEN HUSBANDS CALL THEIR WIVES “THE OLE BALL & CHAIN”,
     I SMILE
          FOR OUR “INVISIBLE CHAIN” LEADS STRAIGHT TO MY HEART.

Realize

REALIZE


Do you realize
     that my heart would cease to beat
          unless it is near yours?
Do you realize
     that one touch of your hand on the small of my back
          makes me melt inside?
Do you realize
     there's no sense waking up
          unless I'm waking up next to you?
Do you realize
     happy moments are not fully happy
          unless I can share them with you?
Do you realize
     my whole world
          revolves around you?
Do you realize
     the best thing in my world
          is that I'm in love with my best friend?
Do you realize
     everything in my life
          would mean nothing without you in it?
Of all these things
     I realize
          that my idea of life complete
               would be to spend the rest of my life with you.
