On days I care enough,
I go down the rabbit hole which is your heart,
through the twisting labyrinth.
And if my perseverance is rewarded
I arrive, awed, at your chamber full of secrets.
It’s a palace of antiquity,
a true paradox,timeless…
fragile but as strong as its presence in my eyes.
But when I’m asked what I think, when I’m asked how it makes me feel…
I confess today my sin
…my words fail me and mostly all I can manage is a smile.
I’m speechless …even to say, ‘with you, my life is an adventure’.
And so forgive me for the only task I fail at everytime.
That is, reminding you how much I love you.
