A Time For Us

For my love, my life, my best friend, and my wife Cynthia…
A time for us someday there’ll be
Our love will stand the trials of time
And Flourish for all to see
Through Fire and water and plague and sword
It will withstand all and more
When you say three words
My heart cried these words never knowing when
The would be tried and tested for the truth
That lay within
I stand not against plague or fire
But the greatest beast of all: Time; for he
Consistently makes me tire.
Fear not, my love, I remain true
To your love and my promise and my love
I remain true to you
Once upon a time you promised me forever
Forever has come and will pass, perhaps
We’ll never be together.
Yet, I believe, in something in us
You’re all I have or need or want
It’s only you that I love.
