To say you are my world
means:
That when I look at the sky
I see your face,
And when I pause alone at the window
I feel your hands on my back.
It means:
That the beauty of a garden
Is half in the words I think to you;
That winter is my fear of losing you,
And that spring is the hope I never will.
It means:
That I have taken the risk of wrapping my life
So completely around yours
That the beauty of a late summer evening is
Inseparable from the beauty of our love.
