you are my heart, my hope, my help,
the passion that is me,
the whole of which i am a part,
my peace, my ecstasy.
you are my future, present, past,
my ship, my sail, my ocean,
the wind that brings me home again,
the home for every motion.
you live within me, yet i am
without you all alone.
with you i am full of light;
without you i am stone.
is this foolish? yes, perhaps,
but also it is true.
i think of life as something i
can spend with only you.
ah, my love! love longs for such
sweet celebrants as this!
love is a burden and a joy,
slavery and bliss.
this day of love come love with me,
come sing with me my song.
come be my valentine, and i
will love you my life long, my love,
will love you my life long.
