my life

i have loved you from the first time i saw you,

that love has never changed.

still my heart yearns for the feeling,

being in love is what i live for — with you.

you were so beautiful then,

that beauty i saw in you

still glistens even as our wedding ring

fades into vagueness…

too many times we were tested,

too many waking hours we have spent.

your silence is deafening,

it pierces thru down deep inside.

i love to hear you shout,

i need to see your anger.

because your emotions meant otherwise,

that your love for me is real.

you hurt me deep,

but perhaps you haven’t seen that.

i cry mysel alone,

yet most of the time i laid it out openly.

i can’t hurt you back,

i’d rather find myself hurting

than seeing you cry.

you brought me sorrow,

you brought me happiness,

but most importantly,

you gave me reason to live,

you gave your life to me,

you have given me Kaye…

there is nothing else i could ask for,

but grow old with you … forever!
