Love is a gift
It comes not only from the heart
But deep inside your soul
It is the very essence of oneself

Love takes time
It is patient and understanding
And will endure for all time

Love does not fade
But draw close those we hold dear
Love is blind and will forgive anything

True love is the path
To eternal life
For time can never extinguish
A light so bright
As the glow of your love.
