All That I Know...

The sun rises,
the sun sets.
A baby cries,
a mother frets.

There is nothing I can do
to keep my heart from you
for all I try to hide
is as certain as the tide.

A breath comes in,
a breath goes out.
A believer believes
and doubters only doubt.

This heedless headstrong desire
burns in my body like a fire,
leaving me feeling empty and cold
when you're not here for me to hold.

Winter cedes to spring,
summer runs to fall.
Oceans are wide and deep,
mountains are cold and tall.

And all that I know is true
is I love every part of you
and as long as there is breath in me
that is as certain as waves on the sea.
