LOVE MADE ALL THE
DIFFERENCE
I
met you long ago it seems,
When
I was very young.
My
head was filled with silly dreams
Unfinished,
just begun.
And
only now, as years have passed,
Do
I really truly see
The
way you took my silly dreams,
And
made them real for me.
You
shared with me your questions,
Your
pleasures and your pain,
Your
peace as well as anger,
Your
sunshine and your rain.
You
built with me your castles,
Shared
with me your schemes,
Forgot
me not in wakefulness,
Forgot
me not in dreams.
I
can’t say how much that means,
Except
that dream we must,
And
if a dream has no real chance,
Then
life can taste like dust.
You
knew that years ago I think.
As
you sifted through the sands,
You
found the best that I could be,
And
helped our life become a plan.
Love
made all the difference,
Forgiveness
kept it warm.
In
every yesterday we share,
Tomorrow
is reborn.
