Valentine's Day

 

Never Knew

I never knew what love meant
until you touched my life.
You give life it's self-meaning and purpose.
With the whisper of your name
the birds sing no more,
or perhaps I loose the ability
to hear their song.
My heart longs only for the sound
of your voice,
and the touch of your silky, soft hand.
I never knew life could be so full.
I never knew love could be so real.
I never knew what happiness was
until I new your love, dear.
With every breath I breathe,
with every beat of my heart,
my eternal soul agrees...
I never knew live until I knew your love.

Through all the changes
in my life, your love
has remained
constant and unconditional.
Though at times
you may have questioned,
worried or wondered...
you never stopped loving me.
On this day of love
I want you to know how very much that means.
You who have loved me first,
love me best.
Thank you for all the love you've shared.

Love is a Miracle

Love is a miracle, sweet as can be,
That will always remain a complete mystery.
For though it is something that's centuries old,
It cannot be purchased for silver or gold.
But instead must be given of one's own free will,
And received with no promises it must fulfil.
And once it's exchanged in this time-honoured way,
There's nothing that love cannot manage to say.
No problems too great and no problems too small,
For love, like a miracle, conquers them all.
And leaves in their place such a feeling of peace,
That joy, just like love, cannot help but increase!
