This is a poem I wrote showing what happiness is to me...love!
To love and be loved-now that's happiness to me
and oh how my heart yearns for how happy I could be
on the phone all night long-hour long walks along the beach
whispering "good nights" and "I love you" as we fall asleep beneath the sheets
when you're scared I'll hold you and when you're tired I'll rub your feet
when you're sad I'll console you and when you're sick I'll make you tea
when you're hurt so am I because you're pain is shared through me
and when you smile Im in awe because you shine so beautifully
oh how my heart yearns for a love I so desire
so I can sing to the hills much louder than any choir
a love that is so strong it could set my soul afire
and a passion that's so deep not even a drug could take me higher
such a feeling can be found just once in a man's life
and if you mess it once, try not to do it twice
'cause God only know why it's so hard to find a wife
that'll stand right beside you, through the good and through the strife
oh Lord, how my heart yearns for how happy I could be
To Love and Be Loved, now that's happiness to me
