Love can move mountains, when all strength is lost
This feeling of joy never counts the cost
While life cannot offer any guarantees
The beauty of love always aims to please
Should a burden surface, love is waiting there
To lighten the load of the grief we must bear
Such love remains faithful, whatever must be
There for the duration of eternity.

Love can carve canyons, then fill them with hope
When life seems forgotten, love can toss a rope
With wonder, love frees with the warmth of a kiss
Saving our lost lives from their darkened abyss
True love can be precious, like an unearthed gem
Yet, to many others, love can be a whim
But, one thing is certain, true love is surreal –
The greatest expression that a heart can feel.

Love can dive lower than the sea is deep
To prove its existence is one meant to keep
While life can be awkward, love provides a rock
Forming the foundation for the heart to dock
When the heart is sailing, love stays on the shore
Serving as a compass, straight to Heaven’s door
A lifetime companion, through thick and through thin
With love as your captain, you will always win.
