Solo Flight

My heart charters new territory,
Since there's been you.
Things used to seem so vital.
I didn't have a clue.

You're a part of me internally.
The things that make me, me
are the things that you see;
the things you live for;
the things you endure.

Your support just blows my mind.
A life's partner's just so hard to find,
but you're real.
You, I feel;
both physically and emotionally.
You're so caring in your devotion to me.

Things I'd never do, but I long to--
I get that needed inspiration through you.
Your encouragement gives me that shove--
that one that lets me know it's love.

I am flying right now,
but you are my wings.
It's with you
the songbird sings.

When I land,
I plan
to take your hand;
make you understand
I love
our love.
