There is a secret part of me, 
a part that few can see. 
Like silk, it is the gentlest, 
yet as strong as strong can be. 
A guiding light, a conscience fair 
a pillar and a rock. 
A faithful, burning beacon, 
when my ship approaches dock. 
Though spirited and changeable, 
never to be second-guessed, 
compared with other parts of me, 
undoubtedly the best. 
A part which gave me all my dreams, 
yet holds me close to ground. 
Where an endless store of compassion, 
and selfless love is found. 
A part I wasn’t born with, 
which came to me as new. 
A part I couldn’t live without, 
that part of me is you. 
Not just a wife and mother, 
so much more than my best friend. 
First and foremost, still my lover. 
May our journey never end.                
I came back to this, D, because, er, I wanted to. It's bringing tears to my eyes. (I'm not one of those people who says, it's bringing tears to my eyes, when it isn't) . t x
