TO MY FRIEND AND LOVER
I love you because you are....
my dearest friend
and most esteemed colleague
my sweet companion
with a youthful heart
which I noticed from the start
I love you because you are....
a sensual man
of passionate persuasion
with earthly desires
and spiritual convictions
of the eternal kind
I love you because.....
You notice each hair on my head
and understand every tear that I shed
You give me what I need right now
and rave reviews without fail
I love you because you are....
An old soul who rebukes sorrow
Because there is no tomorrow
for lovers like us
who must make haste
to catch that last flight or bus
to be together forever in paradise.
