I run into you and throw my arms under your armpits
And wrap my face in your long and pretty hair
Like the crashing of a wave when it is happy
Or the slicing of a watermelon in the summer sun
Like the way I feel when you smile at me
And the little ones are both sleeping
Theodore and Ptolemy, This is my heart
Two halves of the most beautiful puzzle
I love you in this life and in the next
I love you like tomorrow
Like substance when its discovered
Or fuel when it is freezing outside
Like rhyme when serendipity allows it
Or freedom to write any song
Like happiness after a long time of sorrow
Or answers when one was afraid
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
