You Are…

As we stand by the ocean, you pull me close
I turn to face you like a woman in love
You gently lift my chin and ask 
"Tell me, what do I mean?"

As I look into your beautiful eyes
I can feel my whole body shiver
My soul wanting to sing out loud
But will you understand my song?

I lean for a kiss 
Suddenly I am at peace 
For you and I speak the same language
You listen carefully as I reveal my heart

You are my perfect moment after a hard day
You are strength when I am scare
You are one I wish to protect
You are my lover and my friend

You are the reason I keep trying
In my dark moments I call for your name
You are the calm after the storm
When life finally calls me home
To our memories, I will hold on

You leave me speechless when you reveal your heart
 I love how honest and vulnerable you become
Letting me in, as two become one

You are my sweet dawn 
The brightest star in the sky
My warmth on cold days
Your arms my paradise

You are the one I want to explore
Savoring each inch of your mind, body and soul
Your realities are my dreams
Your desires my command
You are everything when the world means nothing
You are my hope 
My destiny 
My life
