I love you for the size you wear now

not for the where you once were at

I enjoy being apart of your evolution

enjoy history taking shape in your eyes

Laugh lines are life lines and I can still

 call on you when I need a friend

It’s always been my dream to grow

old with you and as much as

fantasies seem impossible

here we are making unbelievable true

If we can hold on to what we’ve built

 then we won’t slip by thinking

 our time wasn’t worth it

it’s been a down payment

 so that we could afford this

When I think about you, I see life as light

it’s when I take my eyes off of you

 that my focus becomes dreary

I hope you don’t mind if I stare for a while

I see you as that integral part 

 that I need for my vision
