When you close your eyes, what do you see?

Love is not blind.

Love is a vision beyond our eyes.

As I close mine

Right in front of me

Does my love appear.

She is formed

By all things;

Her eyes are petals,

Slow falling light

That turns your head

Through a hazy Spring.

Her hands are the morning,

The start of all things,

A welcome to beginnings,

And a steady help

For the beginning of the end.

Her lips are autumn;

The mild warmth,

Of a lingering summer.

But as time passes

And the sun begins to set

Faster and faster,

And rise later and later,

She does all she can

To give you hope.

She colors you fire

Before burying you in ice,

So you may find life again

In the spring.

My love has given me

The greatest gift of all;

She is formed by all things,

And so it is in all things

That I can find a reason to love.

Even if that thing is me.
