Loving You The Way You Are
By Sachin C. Menon
I waited out these years,
I kept fighting my fears
That I might not meet you,
Another life to pass without you.
Then one day you are right here.
It feels like my loneliness was never there.
Vanished is the void I carried all these years,
Banished away all of my fears.
All the things that seemed a myth
Suddenly are real that I live with,
Making my life worth more living,
Inspiring me to be more giving.
Every time I look into your eyes,
I feel complete, I feel in the skies.
Your warmth makes me feel whole.
Your fragrance enriches my soul.
Every morning I wake to wait
Till you walk to me in tempting gait.
Every evening I want to stay up in candle light,
Watch you turn gold, as it flickers so slight.
Every time I hold you in an embrace,
Time and worries in that moment cease.
And as into my chest you bury your face,
We melt in each other, into everlasting peace.
