You Are the One

It didn’t take but a moment To realize that you were the one, My soul mate, my joy, my love The answer to my happily ever after A sigh of light, like the moon at night, Shimmering in the darkness… Fighting with the black to breathe Life back into my dreams, into my heart It didn’t take me anytime at all To know that you were my hope, The miracle, like an epiphany, Rising from the ashes, smoke – a mist Surviving the fire, burning with expectation Anticipation of the love story, poetry Written on the edge of forever, Abiding in the reality of romance and passion It didn’t take me long to realize You are the sky who holds my sun, The oak – so strong you always grow Miracles, faith that is like laughter, Honest and pure, stirring up the shadows So they praise the silence, surrender To the rain, dancing – gentling – peaceful As the moment when I realized… You are the one who holds the key to my heart The same one who makes faith from doubt, Stills the clouds with a sincerity that speaks so loud, Singing the song of desire – creativity, insight that is Truer than the magic that makes me so certain You are the one that my soul has always known, The one who lights my life with a love – That makes us forever ONE
