Yet there will be times
When the road ahead forbids me to pass through
And I couldn't grasp a helping hand
Those will be the times, my love
When I would need you the most

Rest assure I will remind myself
For within my heart dwells silently
The memories of you and me
My own passport out of peril
For after that all my troubles would fade away

'Cause everytime I think of you
It never failed to make me smile...

With an Exuberant Embrace

Thinking of you keeps me entranced in a passionate world of fantasy
with desires burning deeply and ceaseless emotions held at bay
The discernment of knowing that unless all inhibitions subside
my dreams would not prosper and in my head they will always stay
I once thought I was forever cursed to walk amongst this earth alone
adrift through time searching for radiance in an aura of unlight
A veracious effigy of a fallen angel abeyant in a mystical veil of clouds
though vigilant to the world below has no apparent gift of sight
Forged with the same steel as the sword sworn to protect it
my heart was far emptier than the spurious smile on my face
You pierced this impervious fortress armed only with a promise
I will gallantly grasp our relationship with an exuberant embrace
Until I first endured the frigid road that led me to your presence
I may never have felt your warmth that I cherish and faithfully respect
An inseparable union will enhance the very lives we aspire to fulfill
as we create elegant memories upon which we can one day reflect
As I now stand steadfast and bold against the immeasurable distance
the dense fog once before me is merely an apparition of a mist
My soulless passages of the past have become a vehement quest
your undying love bestows me hope and the inner strength to persist

Our Love

Love has chosen you for me
In all its wisdom it could see
That we were always meant to be
Together

So I have chosen here today
My true love for you to convey
And constant shall it always stay
Forever

You are the reason my heart sings
And floats aloft on gilded wings
Just being in your presence brings
Me pleasure

As we begin our life anew
Tomorrow’s brightness shining through
Our hopeful hearts look forward to
The future

May time and test our love prove true
May it bring hope and faith renew
As it grows increasingly in
Measure

And now, my love, one thing I pray
That we will always feel this way
For our love is a precious gift
To treasure

Love reflects love in return:
The Divine Comedy
by Dante

" The love of God, Unutterable and perfect, flows into a pure soul the way light rushes into a transparent object. The more love we receive, the more love we shine forth; so that, as we grow clear and open, the more complete the joy of loving is. And the more souls who resonate together, the greater the intensity of their love for, mirror like, each soul reflects the other."

PERFECT LOVE

Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone. To have a deep soul relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But God to the Christian says, "No, not until you're satisified and fulfilled and content with living, loved by Me alone and giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me, to have an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me alone.

"I love you, My child, and until you discover that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found, you will not be capable of the perfect human relationship that I have planned for you. You will never be united with another until you are united with Me -- exclusive of anyone or anything else, exclusive of any other desires or belongings.

"I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to bring it to you. You just keep watching Me, expecting the greatest things. Keep learning and listening to the things I tell you. You must wait.

"Don't be anxious and don't worry. Don't look around at the things you think you want. Just keep looking off and away up to Me, or you'll miss what I have to show you.

"And then, when you're ready, I'll surprise you with a love far more wonderful than any you would ever dream. You see, until you are ready and until the one I have for you is ready, I am working this minute to have both of you ready at the same time, and until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life I've prepared for you, you won't be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with Me, and this is perfect love.

"And dear one, I want you to have this most wonderful love. I want you to see in the flesh a picture of your relationship with Me, and to enjoy materially and concretely the everlasting union of beauty and perfection and love that I offer you with Myself. Know I love you. I am God Almighty, believe and be satisfied."
