Metamorphosis

I was just a wanderer

A soul who'd lost his way

She was just a ray of light

That brightened every day

Wasn't looking for a lover

So afraid to make a friend

Afraid of starting over

Afraid to lose again

She gave me hours of her time

I shared with her my soul

Her smile healed all the pain inside

Her kindness made me whole

The more we met, the more I loved

The further my heart fell

Afraid that I might scare her

If my feelings I did tell

But over time I wore her down

She saw my heart was true

And realized no other love

Could love her as I do

So now my heart belongs to her

My love, my soul, my life

She is my world, my everything

My best friend and my wife.
