When

Poem for my husband

 

When...by Michiko Shepherd

 

When I am lost in the darkness,

You are there to lift me into the light.

When I am in dispare,

You are there to comfort me.

When I have lost my path,

You are there to guide me.

When I need love,

You are there with open arms.

When I need a friend,

You are there unconditionally.

When I feel complete,

You are in my heart.

This is lovely. You are very lucky to have a love such as this in your life. I particularly like the last two lines!

Any poem which expresses true love from the heart is a great one in my book. Short, sweet and to the point. Hope hubby loved it, I do :)

Beautiful. It's very simplistic, yet very meaningful.
