I made mistakes early on
Wishing I could find the one
Looking past an idiot’s flaws
My fate’s conclusion seemed forgone
I lost my faith
In failed love’s wake
The true love I thought I’d never find
Was you
Life brings all sorts
Of slings and arrows to your ports
Love is extremely hard
When it was used, before, to extort
But then I came around
Thinking true love was not to be found
I had to give up on my false idea of love
For you
I woke up one day
Very far away
From my dreams and reality
I gave up on love in every way
I was lost
Without knowing the cost
And the person that found me
Was you
I never knew
This day would bring you
And I would experience
A love known only by few
I was found
And quite knowingly bound
The woman I call my wife
Is You.
