One year since
You opened your heart to me.
To share deep feelings
To take a chance.
Love, lust, fear and stealth.
Love under a bushel
Waiting to shine in the open.
What a year it was.
How far we have come.
Souls laid bear,
Bodies connected.
How close we are.
Moving toward
A future we don’t know.
Love grew and grows
More each day.
A bond where only
A fling was intended.
Powers beyond us
Are pulling us together.
Poetry and passion
Love and affection
Feelings in verse.
Honesty and fear,
Trust and commitment
Our companions.
Words fail me
As I try to tell you
How much I love you.
How sure I am
That we belong together.
I don’t want to change you.
I want to be with you
For as long as you will let me.
Free to be who we are,
Happy together,
In love.
(Raymond A. Foss)
