Forever and always…
Beside you, I’ll be.
In my heart, you stay…
Bringing out the best in me.

We drift and return…
Through life’s waves.
Our world views…
Struggle in blending, throughout each day.

The realizing of dreams…
Our main motivation.
Sadly the highs and lows go back and forth, just like those waves…
Drifting back in forth, in the life ocean.

They touch us in joy…
And drift back away.
And disappointed or not…
Like children at heart, we continued to play.

Never giving up…
Because it’s within reach of our touch.
Love our foundation, so together we can stand.
Already the trials dealt, we've withstood so much.

It has been a journey…
The good and the bad.
I wouldn’t have traveled it with anyone else…
But you, the best man.

No matter the final outcome…
We’ll be okay.
Together as one…
We will have our own say.

Like Ethel B and Willie…
Fireworks flew.
But managed to build a family and life…
And to give respect to their hopes and legacy, so will me and you.

Beautifully put . . . especially the Willie and Ethel part. Inside thing to all those read this amazing work.
