A Perfect Union

by Brandie White Partin - Capricorn

To your parents, your a son
That for them would do anything;
One who will always feel that
There's safety under "mama's wing".
To your brothers and your sister
You say you're someone they can turn to;
No matter what the time of day,
You say they can count on you.
To your daughters, you're a hero-
To htem, no other can compare;
Their love, feelings, and secrets
With you, they'll always share.
But what you are to me
Is not my heart's complete desire;
To make it more, I don't know how.
I want you as my soul-mate-
My partner for the rest of my life;
My companion, my lover, and my friend-
You as my husband and me as your wife.
I need to know without a doubt
Where our relationship is going;
I can't keep on the way things are-
With the uncertainty of not knowing.
Without you, my life is empty
Because you play a special role,
In completing a perfect union
Of making a half a complete whole.
