I REALLY LOVE YOU!

"I really love you."
No, it's no some sappy co-dependent thing;
It's a "you" complete my "sense of complete" thing.
I've discovered how right and full my life has become
Since you're included within the framework
Of daily living, working, laughing and just being here
Or there or anywhere, whatever, wherever, together.
Nor, is it that sappy "you've become a part of me" thing.
I'm my own woman, you know that, but oh, baby
When I'm in your arms, kissing you, loving you, I know
That it is the unique "we" which completes our pleasure.
It's an "only happens with us thing", our thing, the real thing.
What a miracle it is to become "one" with a factor of two!
And no, it's not an "I can't live without you" sappy thing;
Because I'd have to continue no matter how you'd leave...
By death or an "I need my space" bolt out the door.
Yet, with you my vision expands and the influence
Of your smile every morning adds strength
To those days which manifest in some kind of struggle.
So, of course, you never ask because I know you know
Now, moment to moment and always that there is a holiness
To a heart's passion which is where we live
In the fullness of days, nights, sunsets, leap years
And the moon's occasional sightless eclipse.
So, yeah, I'll speak it into the air and eternity:
"I really love you".

Well it's easy to go with the flow as long as two people are flowing in the same direction.  He resisted being love from the outset...wish I had known that he felt it was an encumbrance.  So, this poem was written as if he agreed with the concept of being loved.  I guess that's why he is has married 3 times.
