I LOVE YOU,
Not only for what you are,
but for what I am when I am with you,
I love you
not only for what
you have made of yourself,
but for what
you are making of me.
I love you
for ignoring the fool that is in me,
for laying hold of all the good that
you see so cearly.
Why do I love you?
I love you
for closing your eyes,
to the promblems,
and hearing the music in me
by listening to me so well.
I love you beacuse you
are helping me to make
of the lumber of my life
not a tavern
but a temple;
and out of the words
of my everyday
not a story full of shame
but a song full of joy
I love you, beacuse you have done as much as
anything else to make me happy.
You have done it without angry word,
without a hurtful sign . you have
done it just being yourself and letting
your love shine through to me.
after all
perhaps this is the real meaning of love
I LOVE YOU !!!
