Bend~Dedicated To My Husband

 
My mortality before me I come out of the shadows
my blaring light shine blinding
with an intensity that burns I tell you I love you

I must warn you I love hard
an eternity not long enough to know you fully
I'm but a young woman when it comes to loving

It takes maturity

A broken heart or many
but it is in me to give of myself wholly
returning affections and receiving afflictions

It is painful at times taking someone to your breast
not losing yourself but finding a part of you not known before
an awakening of sorts

There is joy with the knowledge but also hurt
as you spend year in and out with a person
growing closer at others farther still

Stretching to the point of breaking
finally realizing there is no other place I'd rather be than beside you
