Maru…my love
I believe
that you will make this world
a better place,
You and I
will carry the weight
of that hope,
To be an example of a woman
who doesn’t outgrow
the burden of love
That…for this lifetime
i will be
For my life’s purpose
Is to love you
the best way I know how.
I believe that you carry
such boundless light,
Brighter
in the deepest darkness
For Life is difficult…
scary at times
But remember, my Maru,
rays of hope
exist in the shadows,
They come
from your own light
And with my light,
shining through, too,
Will make this world
Worthy of you.
