Love

The element of love is that...Which no one can describe...
We know we cannot purchase it...Or gain it with a bribe
...Not even when the highest judge...Pronounces a divorce...It
is a certain sentiment...That fills the human heart...And
forces all our selfishness...And reason to depart...It may fly
out the window or...Remain upon the sill...But we can never
summon or ...Dispose of it at will...It is a certain something
that...Is neither old nor new...And that will last as long as
life...If it is really true.

James J. Metcalfe

 

We are in Love
I know that you will be true to me...As I am true to you...And
in our joy the gentle sky...Will be forever blue...I know the
moon will glow and all...The stars will seem more bright...
Because together we will hold...The beauty of the night...
And everytime the dawn appears...The purple hills will fade
And in the golden sun our hearts...Will never be afraid...
Because we are so much in love...That we are bound to be...
Together in our every thought...And every memory...And
that is why I tell myself...My dream is coming true...As I
begin the happiness...Of sharing life with you.
