My Love For You


From the very first moment,

That I knew,

From that moment,

That I could feel you,

You were my truest love.

 

From that first sign,

Of your pure light within,

From that joy,

Our love began,

And so was born our love.

 

How could it be true?

That I could be so blessed with you?

I rejoice in you!

Growing, glowing, shining,

And so began my love for you.

 

From that moment, I knew, I knew,

I’d give up my life, it’s so very true,

I’d take the whole world on,

There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you,

And so it is my love for you.

 

For I am only yours, and you are mine,

Like a feather in the wind,

A kiss upon the wings of time,

I hold my breath for you,

I will ALWAYS hold my breath for you.

 

I’ve loved you since time began,

And my love for you will never end,

Across the centuries,

The seas, the skies above,

And so you are my endless love.

 

If all else ends, if all else fails,

My Little Loves, know this to be true:

There’s nothing that compares to you,

No one that hails my heart as you do,

And so it is my love for you.

I am an American author, poet and public speaker who has been through some real life challenges and come out on the bright side with a ridiculous amount of gratitude, love and passion. I write books on finding the strength within ourselves that we may not immediately realize we have. I inspire others to give up victimhood and become warriors in their own life stories. Through my own life, I show others that it is never too late to accomplish the impossible, against all odds, and live the life of our dreams.
