Do I love you? Is this real?
My heart is whispering yes
My mind has finally discovered
What my lips have yet to profess
It seems I’ve waited a lifetime
To discover a love that is true
Every prayer that I laid before God
Was answered when he brought me to you
I felt fear when you spoke of your feelings
My heart cried that I needed more time
Love came softly… gently… quietly
With the assurance you were meant to be mine
I feel a peace… when I am with you
I feel security… within your arms
Your love… wraps itself around me
Guarding me… protecting me from harm
Within your eyes I see warmth and tenderness
I see the promise of… undying love
I see your soul… strong and faithful
I see a blessing from our Father above
My heart… is overflowing within me
Filled with love; adoration for you
I can’t sleep as emotion overtakes me
In celebration of a love that is true
Fear persists but is subdued by excitement
The excitement of discovering true love
Dreaming… of the start of our new life
Knowing a lifetime will still not be time enough
Our love will overcome all that would harm us
It will triumph; it will shine; it will prevail
It will excel any love that was before us
It will be the love of poetry; of our very own fairy tale
For I know truly that you are my Prince Charming
And I pray I will always be the one you love
You’re the hope harbored in my heart a lifetime
You are the love that was meant for me… from above
I close my eyes and your face is before me
I feel my heart and know it beats for… you alone
You gave me time; you give me all I’ve ever needed
“My love”… my heart, my trust… you now own
And now as we begin our journey together
Never alone… that journey is now done
God will lead us… his path we will travel
Two hearts… that now beat as one
