The clock ticks steadily that seems slow but not as fast as the years that go by,
The hearts strengthen and our bond forties the fortress we've made,
although the hearth has open with utmost warmth that has come to stay,
the nine winters have past and gone away,
and we have seen the beauty of spring and heat of summer,
but there is the Fall,
where even though years passed,
I am still the girl with a fervent want and almost need
for the small, cute romantic nothings,
the sudden stops that make my heart jump and cannot believe my ears and eyes
of the love that flares,
the public affection that is all too true and so secret,
to be known of love and also show it,
No, never by command, but all in instinct,
And I cannot forget the face of wonderment when we are so near
thinking about each others thoughts in quiet afternoons,
the simple walks where we find something about each other
that we may have forgotten or not yet discovered,
the simplicity of being in love and showing it.
If you will show this again, don't let it fade from you,
don't let us be sullen and forget the very reason why we fell,
lets keep it ablaze always
