Always

by Gillian Clarke
(Essex)

Always I have loved you
never stopping for one day
walk with you side by side
and never walk away.
Always I will hold you tight
from you I'll never turn,
Keep the chill away from you
and make the fire burn.
Always... I will make you smile
make sure you'll never frown,
firmly hold your hand in mine and
never let you down.
Always taking care of you,
Lay my hands upon your face,
Admire the soul & being in you
coz no-one can take your place.
Always will I kiss your lips
with me you'll have no doubt,
Know that you can keep my heart
that's what Love is all about.
Please always stand beside me
so I can always let you know,
that you have truly captured my heart
for that I Love you so.
I feel that you're my Soulmate
whom I've searched for all my life,
The one I'd choose to marry if...
You would have me as your wife.
As I end this poem one more thing I'd like to say,
I'll be loving you more tomorrow
Than I do today.
