A Heart Renewed

For so long I have lived in a world of black and white
Never saw a change to this in sight
Just excepted it as my life's plight
Understanding that love would never again make it bright

I had come to terms to the daily grind of a mundane life
Never would I be someones lovely wife
It may be lonely but at least it created no strife
My heart would never again be cut into pieces by love's knife

I thought I would forever be blue
And then I was blessed with you
How deep my heart would open I had no clue
I found myself hanging on every thing you say and do

Suddenly my life was filled with color right before my eyes
Life's outlook from me began to rise
Soaring on cloud nine I began to fly
And my love for you I could not deny

The thought of you causes my heart to race
When I close my eyes your image my mind begins to trace
Your voice puts a smile on my face
While in my dreams I feel your sweet embrace

My feelings I can not hide
I love you so much it can't be contained inside
In my world I need you to always abide
I don't ever want off of this love ride

Because of you my life began to rumble and shake
I finally feel alive for goodness sake
If this is a dream I pray to never wake
Without you in my life my heart would surely break

A love like ours is so rare
I need you like a breath needs air
I can not express how much I care
Baby I promise for you I will always be there!
