Facing the path of time I have found you,

I will give you my world because of one word.

This word repeats in my head and makes me feel,

Better about not being dead.

Your words weekend my callused heart,

And give us both today a fresh start.

Most words are lost buried in the foot,

Steps of time but this one word stands on time..

Love is the word that I know I heard,

Any other would simple not work.

Forged in the heart of lovers,

And often used by a many mothers.

Love is the key that unlocks the lock,

That was placed upon me.

You hold the only copy the one that,

Needs to be open the lock to set me free.

I still dream of the day when you stand,

In front of me arms open and unspoken,

Reaching out to make us both whole,

As we take back our rites and you take back my soul.
