seventeenth

Oh my how time has passed quickly

Counting the years since that day 

Marked on our shared calendar 

When we first kissed


Soon after on another day I remember 

Us sitting at my kitchen table 

Talking together about our future 

Being glad you wanted to discuss it 


I didn't know how easy it would be 

Living together with you 

And now seventeen years later 

I feel closer than ever 


I hear the affection in your voice 

I feel your gentle touch

I know you are true

And I love you more and more 


We are happy together 

Almost effortlessly interacting 

Enjoying the life we have 

As time goes by
