Her story is his story
Fusion comes to mind
Two lives lived for the other
Love combined
They fit, two aces
Working at it day by day
Aligned together
Above the daily fray
Nothing they cannot surmount
They've got hopes and dreams
And realistic expectations
It is what it seems
Good times filled with purpose
Worthwhile how their time is spent
Natural and easy, magnificent
His story is her story
Real and filled with heaven's scent
One nods the head in appreciation
That what they have is meant to inspire
To make brighter each day
And to encourage the rest of us
So that we each can say
My story is her story
Her story is mine
Love is what we share in it
And how we are defined.

Modern lovers
Fall asleep together
Wake up and read the paper
Nod and harrumph
Have coffee with each other
Yeah, that’s the kind of love I want
That’s the kind of love we have

This is today with many tomorrows
We’re way past yesterday
We own the world
There’s no sorrow
Let us pray
That our love lives long
Stays strong
That we’ll always find a way
To bring joy to the other
Each and every day

Valentines Day

It was a moment that led into an hour
Then a day, then a month, then years,
Then a life
A life of love
From an instant to a minute
And then on
To an endless supply of mirth and merriment
And just plain contentment
As we ambled down the road
Together, together
Ever, ever
Never to sever
Locked forever
However we go
Wherever for we know
We’re not going anywhere without the other

I caught your stare
Come hither it said
So hither I went to your side
And said hello with my trademark smile
Thus began an adventure so wild
First there were jokes
You liked my cracks
I liked your style
Classy and hip
All the while
We teased each other
It was becoming worthwhile
One thing then led
To another and then
We became lovers
More than good friends
Many kisses later
And a couple of kids
I still go for your stare
Come hither it says

I was a fool
Poor little me
I fell for her
She felled me
I gave
I lost
My heart
The cost
I gave all
All was lost
So I stand alone on this lonely shore
The perfect place for what’s in store
Tears to account for this misery
She will never be mine
So it must be

They towed my T-bird
Landlord is at the door
Trying to get ahead
Gonna make that score
Big blue sky
Still mine be assured
They can’t tow me
Just the T-bird

I got no cash but I ain’t down
It’s  just just an opportunity
Not gonna drown
For me to achieve
No mountain gonna stop me
You better believe

I guess for now I’ll taking the bus
I’ll make the best of it
Won’t cuss
Just **** it up

They towed my T-bird
I don’t need a car
I got two good feet
I can wish upon a star

They towed the T-bird
But they can’t tow me

I’m not sure I deserve you
One so very cool
A winner by any measure
While I’m just an average Joe

Your winsome smile
Come hither look
Stop me in my tracks
I can’t believe this is happening
So I tell myself

I will try my best for you
For you so inspire
No one can match your loveliness
Nor shall I tire of your company
The aura that you have
You’re better than I could have dreamed
I want to be your man
