Your eyes are like the sea.
Sometimes calm, sometimes stormy.
But I know their loving gaze
Rest only upon me.
Your arms are like pillars
holding me up above the madness
Resting in those arms
I feel no trace of sadness
Your mouth is like a flower.
Speaking only words so sweet,
your tongue is a delicate petal
uttering words to ground my feet.
Your mind is like a sword
Sharp in its lucidity
Whenever I need guidance
you are sure to give it to me.
Your heart is like the moon.
It rests like a pearl in my hand.
Whatever you desire of me,
you need only to command.
Your soul is like a bird,
soaring through the sky
It takes me with you,
to places upon high.
Your love is like a house.
It is my shelter, my home.
The love you freely give,
Is the sweetest I’ve ever known.
