Love

I Love You. Not for what you are, But for what I am when I am with you I Love You Not only for what you have made yourself, But for what you are making me. I Love You For the Part of me that you bring out.

I Love You For putting you hand into my heaped up heart And passing over all the foolish, weak things That you can't help dimly seeing there. And for drawing out into the light all the Beautiful belongings that no one else had Looked quiet far enough to find.

I Love You because you are helping me to make of the lumber of my life, not a tavern, but a temple. Out of the works of my everyday Not a reproach, but a song.

I Love You Because you have done more than any creed Could have done and more than any fate Could have done to make me happy. You have done it without a touch, without a Word, without a sign. You have done it by being yourself, perhap that's what being a friend is after all!
