Because of You by Quinn Blackburn

Because of You by

Somewhere within
a little girl sits
upon the be-flowered hill of my heart
sighing with loving delight.
No matter how dark
or wearying the trials,
your love dawns anew,
restoring my faith,
healing all hurts,
clearing my sight.
Time, sorrow and distance
are fleeting trivial things
to the heart that knows
that love is eternal,
an endless
self-perpetuating ring.
Naught to be done
about the riot in my heart
you’ve incited.
It’s only to be expected
when love is so gladly requited!
Come what may,
I am complete,
content at my core.
For you tend the garden of my soul,
and I want for nothing more.
The World makes sense.
Life is a prize.
I’ll never be chained
bankrupt or broken.
Because you walk beside me
with love in your eyes.

This year’s Valentine for the love of my life. Like all the best things in Life… Laughter, Smiles, etc., Love is a miracle because the more you give it away, the more you have. It’s a splendor in all it’s forms, but that Love exists at all is perhaps what I am most grateful for. xo Have a wonderful day, my friends!
