Ode to...Love?

You are the light of my day.

You are the moon at night.

You guide my special way.

You prove my heart right.

*

You are my sun and moon,

The bodies shifting and full,

The sun a golden boon,

The moon with its gentle pull.

*

You are here, in my heart and head.

You are transformed.

You are a fire, instead

of a loss, and a heart in a storm.

*

You are my great love.

You are the one I need.

You are my below and above.

You are the story I read.

*

You are all that I can say, all that I'm able...

Oh, no worries. I understand. The money's on the table.

Wherever inspiration strikes...

*
