True Love

True Love is not a romance novel, and it isn't living happily ever after.
It is not walking around on cloud nine, stolen kisses, and lustful glances.
Although these things are nice, they are not what real true love is about.

True Love is... Laughing freely.
It is a smile that crosses your face, when you don't even realize it because that special person is on your mind.
It is tireless days after long nights of never having enough time with one another.
It is missing that person moments after they have gone.
It is feeling ok with yourself because you know in your heart of hearts... in this moment... with this person... you are wonderful just the way you are.
It is saying I Love You and feeling it ache in the marrow of your bones because it feels so right.
It is in the moments we share, or that call you make at just the perfect time.
It is messages that lift our spirits, even when they don't contain anything of real substance.
It is looking forward to hearing that scratchy first words of the morning voice and loving how it sounds because you are the first person to hear it.
It is that silly thing I say that makes you laugh, or that silly thing you chuckle about before you say it, because you know it will make me laugh.
It is not wanting to go to sleep because you want just one more minute together.
It is a connection so deep and rare that it can never be replaced by another.

This is True Love. This is Us. This is You.

Moments of You

You guide my thoughts
while I sleep and when I am awake.
You remind me that when I feel like giving up
miracles happen.
You renew my faith and show me hope.
There is a place where happiness lives, and it is obtainable.
You awaken Love and show me it has no end.
You remind me that through you, anything is possible.
You renew my soul in ways unimagined...
ways I never want to forget.

In Moments of you
I can find peace.
Love everlasting
Life Eternal.
In those moments of you
there is a place where I am free.

You held my hand in times of need
You comfort all my fears.
In you, I am whole,
no ties to bind me
no fear to hold me down
no cares in the world
just you, reminding me,
I am perfect in your sight.

In Moments of you
I can find peace.
Love everlasting
Life Eternal.
In those moments of you
there is a place where I am free.
