eleven years

Your eyes speak as you look my way 
Something more than words
Something I know with full certainty
Something we share together. 

Being next to you night and day
Every move we make around each other 
So familiar now everything is easy 
So completely where I want to be.

If I don't make a big fuss about it
If I take it for granted we're good
Even if you don't need me to say it
I'll just quietly take this moment. 

Let me tell you again how much I love you
The way you stand strong for liberation 
The way you are especially kind and honest 
The way you think of how to help others. 

Every precious inch of your outside
So beautiful to me to be with as I listen
To hear what you are thinking about 
To take in your insights  and analysis. 

Eleven years now since we came together 
Passing by quickly when we get along so well 
Finding such happiness in each other
What a wonderful life we have.
