the power of two


You send me the lyrics of a love song,
The power of two,
Your way of showing you care about me.
You believe in the message.

We talk about the meaning for us.
We are creating a relationship.
We are in it together, both of us,
Inside the same circle of feeling.

What is love? How to define it?
For you the declaration is a promise,
Making a commitment.
I will be true to you.

I respect that,
A mutual pledge freely given.
That’s so powerful when it is real
And so vulnerable when it is not.

Who knows what will last?
Are we capable of remaining steadfast?
If love is a feeling of wanting to give,
We have it now. I think it will live

As long as we laugh together.
It’s a process for us, getting stronger,
Learning to trust each other,
Learning to trust ourselves.

We are falling in love.
I love saying these words to you,
Seeing your happy face agrees,
Knowing it’s true.
