When you said, “I love you”

 When you said, “I love you,”

I went over the moon.

My heart sang its glory,
……
The stars sang in tune.

As when with a word

God brought forth light,

So with these words

You ended my night.

So with these words

You made something new:

A bond of devotion

Between me and you.

How powerful words

To shape who we are!

We ponder in silence;

Our words cross a bar.

Your words crossed a threshold

And entered the past,

Yet they have created

A world that will last.
