A Word

In the beginning there was a word.
And the word was love.
And it’s all he had and all he wanted
She was all he wanted.
And the word grew and grew until it took in his whole world,
Until she became his whole world.
And it was good.
she became his guiding light,
the star his ship would follow,
always to bring him home.
In every storm she was his port,
his safety net on the highwire of life.
And he was hers,
and they knew that,
if either of them ever fell the other would catch them
forever and always.

In the beginning there was a word.
And the word was love.
A word with more weight than the world,
A word with more power than the sun.
A word which is so much more than just four letters.
A word of magic,
A word which can shape your world.
The longest word which exists,
A word which can last forever.

In the beginning there was a word.
It can still be heard at the end.
