How Lucky I Am

For T.B.

I am amazed,
An overwhelming feeling.
It makes me want to cry rejoicing,
I am lucky.

The burning desire in my soul,
Like the sun shining in my heart.
How sweetly a tender kiss is on your lips,
The butterflies flutter about their cage.

A graceful smile passes through.
And it recharges me like lightning.
To see that pleasure across your face,
Reminds me how lucky I am.

I want to burst out crying,
Amazed at the life I have now,
And the future I am building with you.
The feeling soaringly bubbles more.

Reminding me of my luckiness,
Is the feel of my head against your chest.
When we hold each other, I hear the steadiness in your heart.
It warms me to the core.

Seeing your striking blue-green eyes,
Feels me to the brim of contentedness,
Their beauty reminds me to smile,
And the fact that I'm yours.

At night, when I sleep,
I think of your chest rising and falling in rhythm.
How lucky I am,
To have you.
