For you, I would be more
Snaring lasso ‘round the crash of waves
Holding tight my infinity
I am nothing if not the sea

You know this place
The waters rise at will
Emotions that are never less
Often chasing you to shore
For you, I would be more

And grin to match the sunshine
Though not a change of heart
But just a man worth being
And just a soul that flounders to be

You know this place
The echo of the center
Spoken to your heart most times
Sending flush to cheeks and rage to arrows
For you, I would be more

This speak I wish to say
So often as you hid away
Is not a change astray from who I am
But rather more than you will ever understand

Because I felt a pulse within your voice
That met a hallowed place within my soul
And as I watched, and listened over time
I came to know of just adore
For you, I would be more

this was beautiful...and endearing, oh how love does compliment life, makes us better people...more patient, understanding, realizing love is...many many things, but not fantasy....love is loving someone when it's hard...

Oh wow...I am spellbound!  What a man!!  That single line:

"For you, I would be more..."

That just put a tear in my throat and a smile in my heart.

What a romantic you are!  You've brought out the romantic in me!

So very beautiful Kathleen...
How I do admire your style.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

You show love in such a beautiful way!
