A Four Letter Word I Said I'd Never Use

My soul is the night
And your eyes are the stars.
And in the day your relentless love
Is the light that breaks through
The over-casting shadows.
Your touch is my summer day
When the world beyond the window
Is isolated in winter's frost.

Do you see why I can't let go?
I'm too comfortable with the warmth
And afraid for my light
to fade.
The darkness is always waiting
But I know I'm too strong
To be enveloped in its grasp,
if you're there to hold me

What once seemed hopeless,
Now has a silver lining.
Your smile is the one thing
That melts away my hate.
And your presence in my life everyday
Is what makes me happy
to wake up each morning

Words can't possibly
do my love justice.
Because "I love you"
Just isn't enough.
Some have puppy love,
But not us.
We've been through too much
for such small words
