The Anniversary

Ah, how all else is naught
when in your arms I'm held;
What comfort and what solace ~
The troubling world is quelled.

Oft we think love saves us ~
I believe this to be true
For where would I be now,
if it were not for you?

Together's our objective,
Our dreams they intertwine.
Where one is weak,
the other's strong ~
A handhold's our incline.

Eyes meeting, never leaving,
Moments of intense,
You are the one, the only,
Our ardour is immense.
