My Love Of A Lifetime
I had a longing in my heart that kept me searching. I've have had on purpose and that was to find you, but was I chasing you or were you chasing me? Then you caught me by surprise, you gave me a freedom I never knew existed. You allowed my spirit to fly, and showed a love so true, so pure, so forgiving. You took my tears and made them yours, you took my pain and my shame and bared it for yourself. I hear my heart beat inside of you, and you free my soul. I have learned it is only in my surrender that freedom comes, so I run and abandon all I know and hide myself in your arms. How sweet your embrace is. How special is this love. How intimate is this love, that only you know my true desires, my dreams, my sins. Yet you call me every time I fall and wipe me clean, you rejoice with me in times of celebration, and give me dreams I would have never envisioned for myself, all the while in every situation you never stop telling me how you love me. You know all there is to know about me and still love me. You created me and molded me together as priceless pottery, and when I break from my own short comings you piece me together again and remind me how lovely and priceless I am to you. You are my love of a lifetime. It is because of you I know how to love others and finally myself. You have taught me to be a wife and a mother. It is because of you I see the beauty in the simple things, and have joy in the hard times. You are the one I adore, you are the one I desire, you are the one I need, you are the one I want. Nothing on this earth can now separate us, the world can not entice me with her false hope and love. No I will not gain the world and lose my soul, I would rather lose this world for the promise of eternity with you. Only your arms my heart desires, only you I aim to please my love, my love of a lifetime. You are my God, my Savior, and the Lord of my life who I freely give all of me.
