My heart…it beats to greet yours, pounding next to me
My eyes…they see to meet yours, wondering what you see
My lips…they’re moist to feel yours, pressing against them
My love…it’s soft and anxious, to feel your warmth within
My skin…it reacts strongly, underneath your touch
My voice…forever reassures that I love you, so much
My mind…it travels past me, to our future that’s ahead
My spirit…soars to Heaven, higher than the angel’s heads
My tears…hold sweet emotion, with happiness they pour
My soul…a mate eternal, to the beautiful soul that’s yours
