Of times past without you I think of no longer,
I shiver no more in the dark night without you
The emptiness inside me has been filled
The hurt and pain of long ago has ceased
Now, I hold close to you when I sleep,
I feel your warm touch, and the safety in your arms
The love and shelter they provide.
I know you will protect me from harm
You share my joys, my fears, and my memories,
My pain, my excitement, and every emotion within me.
Your presence gives me comfort
From you I draw the strength to continue.
The bond we share has grown ever stronger
Our thirst for one another has been quenched
Together our minds are one
And two souls, once lonely, have joined
