You Are My Life

My guiding light

You are my guiding light

You chase the darkness away

You are my heart’s delight

And always make my day

I think of you when you’re gone

It becomes such a empty place

I always hope it won’t be long

Until you fill the room with your grace

When you laugh it makes me glad

When you speak, I listen

I hear when you get really mad

I back your every decision

If you want a better day

I cannot change what must be

I can only ask you to stay

Hoping I can set you free

My love you are

You’re always on my mind

My own shining star

That took so long to find

love poems
