Because This Love is True

Because this love is true
I can let go of that old false vision
Because we are honest and open
I place my heart in her hands
She has placed hers in mine.
We trust, we care deeply.

I am moved, in awe of her
devotion, her brilliant mind.
Her other name is excellence
Her love, so uncommon,
is the light I am drawn towards.

My heart still leads, must lead
Slow ponderous mind follows
Elephant mind, calmed and now tame
wakes me at night with questions,
is lulled to sleep by thoughts of her
calmly snoring, openly sharing,
giving us all the space and love
and comfort that we need

Honored. Grateful.
Fine
