the for of us will always be the other
as we seek for each the better
let us relish in the truth, for one
is truth for both in what we have begun

a lifetime of sharing, of loving and caring
that for us both we stand as daring
the world to pass us by as solely one
to count us together, paired as single

for the for of us is us as each is own

I enjoyed the sentiments.  I didn't quite get the "for of us"  but I am getting there.

sharyn, think of 'for' as in (for example) the for in 'what are we here for' --- think of it as meaning or purpose, ergo, what is the meaning or purpose of us...anyway, thanks for reading and commenting

The blend of spirits here, seeks the higher essence; each for the other.  As we give of ourselves, we trust that the other puts our own needs in the fore...so that we can concentrate of theirs.

Deep thoughts, and a wonderful flow
