You, nurture within me, 
The song of a lover, 
The vision of a poet 

You quicken within me, the gift of humour 
So that I can brighten tarnished times 
 
Be with me as I live out my life 
As I dare to be authentic,  in a world of fake news
Alive, trembling with possibilities, of hopes and dreams  

As we sing of our love, 
Let us rejoice in the splendour of our passions
Fill our hearts with the cadence of love

Your encouragement ignites my heart 
Your laughter lights up a room
And your touch fills my aching void
