The love of my life doesn't have messy blonde hair
or strong arms and blue eyes.
The love of my life doesn't speak my language
or sleep in my bed at night.
The love of my life can't come to dinner at my parent's house
or kiss my lips before he goes to work.
The love of my life will never leave
or dry up
or lie to me
or cheat.
In fact, the love of my life doesn't belong to me.
He is as wide as the Earth and blue as the sky.
He is older than the trees and stronger than fire.
He kisses my toes on the sand and cleanses my sins.
He is everlasting.
He is life-giving and selfless.
The love of my life is God's greatest masterpiece
and every artist's dream.
The love of my life does not judge or condemn.
The love of my life is beauty beyond compare.
Reflecting the sun and the stars and the moon.

The love of my life is the
Sea.
