My Love

You are my love

Gentle and strong

You by my side

Never feels wrong

Now I am sick

Our plans on hold

However a greater

Love story has never been told

You are there

When I need a hand

When I am lonely

You are my friend

I’m not sure

Where I would be without you in my life

I am so blessed

Just to be your wife

Even when we grow old

We will still have each other

To laugh and love daily

To treasure and to hold
