Now that I love you

Now that I love you

there is no holding back

there is no reasoning

of tit for tat

because love it is just this invisible stream

that seeks to flow

toward the soul of its beloved

If there is a place where our souls are joined

then I sense always the pulls and tears

as well any stress you face

so far away

in that land of terror

All I can do though

at these moments

is pray for you

for this is the job you chose to do

to protect those who

can not protect themselves

and it only makes me love you more

for to love you means

I accept it all

Knowing deep inside my heart

yours is the tender soul

from whom my deepest love

can never ever ever

depart

for the times I doubted

the way to happiness was lost

and the sadness of that

cost me entirely too much

my love

So now

I allow

these feelings to flow

and own

the truth of this

for my heart

my love

is honest

and it is true

my heart

my love

belongs to you
