Time

If I take the time to learn who you are

so I can see into your heart 

recognize the strength of your spirit

the value of your love

submit to the God dwelling in you

respect the knowledge that you bring

revel in the warmth of your protection

seek your shelter during my storm

understand the hurt and strength in a tear you shed

am not insecure with your friendships or time away

recognize we all have faults and want you anyway

support you in public even if I disagree in private

break into a smile when I see you

get lost inside your gaze

desire the closeness of your body

yearn for the heat of your touch

welcome the joining of our bodies

lift you up when you are down

support you in your dreams

Will you take the time to see the love inside of me?
