When kings ruled with iron fists

Dedicated to my Hubby Dearest. I hope our love is everlasting ❤
I’ll hold your hand
For a lifetime, I promise you
I’ll share your ebbs and flows
You’re my lifeline, I cherish you
I’ll love you no matter what
You’re my heartbeat, I need you
I’ll be there for eternity
You are me, I am youRitu 2015

To Be Loved
To be loved
The most precious feeling
To know you care
It’s soul healing
To feel your embrace
Warms the heart
The touch of your lips
Heats other parts
To know you’re there
Come good or bad
By my side
Whether happy or sad
To love someone
Can be bittersweet
To know you’re loved
Makes you completeRitu 2017

Today Spidey will quote a fellow blogger, who commented on last week’s post. We both loved the words, and felt they needed sharing!
“Love lasts many seasons and can last a lifetime if you tend its garden.” Tony Burgess
True love is not effortless. In order for it to last, you both need to put in the time and effort to keep it going.
It is ever changing, blossoming in different ways at each stage.
Each stage requires a different form of nurturing.
Love evolves when you’re with ‘The One’. Its face changes, your feelings morph, but as long as you are willing to move with it, change it, tend it, as Tony says, it will last a lifetime.
Happy Sunday Peeps! ❤

To love someone so completely… is devotion indeed.
Some think you shouldn’t worship anyone to that extent. It leaves you vulnerable, so vulnerable.
When you do love someone in this way, it consumes you. You are them, they are you. You would do anything for them, give anything for them.
In many ways, this is how I feel for my Hubby Dearest. I am devoted to him. I would give anything for him. But I know that the feelings are mutual.
My one and only
My heart, my life and my all
Devoted to you
