Working Title "The Roots of Our Love"


I loved you first, but now our love

Passion burning like stars of the night sky.

Once positioned as no more than a mere stranger,

Now the light in the darkness that catches my eye

Love that has awakened a desire for romance,

A cup that will forever have its fill.

Intertwined together; held closely as we dance            

Slowly rotating, unlike the earth that stands still.                            

Ten years, a thought once resulting in shock.

No shared moment in which regret lives.

Forever inhabiting my mind, with each tic and toc

Like the sun, life it does give

A year together, as a couple we have grown

Endless words we have spoken, truly love never known
