love is tender

Love is tender

Love is something that needs nurturing.
Give it care and give it time.
Gently urging it onward.

Patience is valued as is trust.
Time is a must.
It doesn’t happen in lust.

One night isn’t enough.
Days are just a start.
It takes time to take thy heart.

Walk slowly down this road.
No sharp curves to lose control.
Nothing hidden by moving too fast.

See the soul before you fall.
Is there a mask to uncover.
What secrets of the other?

Take the time.
Take the time.
Let it grow oh so slow.

Falling fast is hard on the heart.
So many have fallen too quick.
Only to lose a piece of themselves.

Look in the eyes.
Look in the heart.
Touch the soul.

Take the time.
Nurture it.
And watch it grow.

The reward will be yours forever.
Time will not matter then.
It will be the two of you till the end.

A long stroll hand in hand.
A journey with your best friend.
Towards eternity you head.

A sun rises and a sun sets.
Together you to remain.
Ever faithful now and then.

A comforting hand.
A loving voice.
A tender touch.

Taking time gives so much.
Is there any other way.
To an end so lasting.

A love so tender.
A love so true.
It awaits you too.
