I want to live forever with you
And watch your hair turn to white
To share in everything you do
Till that never-ending night

Each wrinkle that appears on my face
Will be but a mark for our love
And another long line to trace
Back to the almighty above

With the aches and pain that come with old age
We’ll take comfort in each other’s presence
Saying farewell to the years like turning a page
Our happiness will be of the essence

Thankfully I can say that you are my soul mate
Looking at all that we have endured
In your eyes I can see the key to heaven’s gate
And know that my troubles are cured

For ours is a once in a lifetime romance
That most can only dream of living
All because each of us took a chance
And with our emotions we were giving



Love one another-let God do the worrying,
Rodney

Oh my, the sincerity of your loving words gave me a shiver. What a treasure, this pretty poem, and no doubt, its author. Thank you!

Rodney~
What a lovely write of your heart.

'Saying farewell to the years like turning a page'

Appreciated the linking of the years to
pages in the book of life.
Well done.
