I walked through this world with my arms open wide
Challenging
Trusting the signs
They had a lesson
Sharp and uncouth
Forget about Wisdom
Forget about the truth
I was bit by a dog
A dog with a rabid tooth
I blame the whole **** thing on my youth
My arms open wide I’ll tell you the truth
Lessons are learned through shadow and will
They’re not always gentle
They’re not always still
But in this moment, not in the right frame of mind
It wasn’t about the dog or the bite
But the fever that came
The broken skin
the head hanging shame
The excruciating pain
I found solace in the moment
Still Feeling naïve
Even the truest of true can be deceived
In that moment, as I watch myself bleed
The lesson became as clear as clear could be
Wisdom and truth are earned
Through blood sweat and pain
By showing up paying attention and playing the game
Always remember A rabid dog can be tamed

Laughter replaces the pain
Let us dance in the rain
Our love is the reason I stay
Your beautiful eyes have there  way
I remember them like it was yesterday
We danced in the rain and held each other close
You Took your finger and wiped the tears from my nose
You pulled me in
Held me close
You’re sent intoxicating like a rose
That is when I knew I couldn’t let go
Of a love I thought I would never know
I found it in you
My everything
Let us dance in the rain
Let the heavens sing
I pull you close
Whisper in your ear and say
I love youmore today than a thousand yesterdays
You mean the world to me and so much more
You are my best friend
The woman I adore
I want to grow old with you by my side
Turning gray as we dance in the rain
My heart filled with pride
It doesn’t get more perfect than what we have right here tonight
I promise to dry all of your tears
Even if it takes a thousand years
Thank you for being my lover
My best friend
My everything until the end
Let us dance in the rain
Right where it all began
