I love you now
without blinders
of new love passion.

I love you now
untangled from tempers
of yesterdays.

I love you now
unhurried by worries
of no tomorrows.

I love you now
compassionately and wise
to who you are.

I love you now
hard as the rock
you have become for me.

The only way to love, Lori, this is one of your best.

Thank you my friend. Believe it or not this one took several days for me to write. The concept was easy enough but the words were a struggle.  I'm glad you liked it. ~L

Everyone needs to say this daily Miss Lori, and everyone needs to hear it daily.

The divorce lawyers would have to switch to practicing corporate law.

It's true TF, you can't hear the I love you's too much (unless they begin to sound like "have a nice day") The steamy stuff of the early days was great while it lasted but it had the aftertaste of drama. I am much preferring the laid back forever and a day thing where you can still stir them coals whenever you want to. ~L
