A New Creation

Two uniquely different individuals Became one His body was hers Her body was his His failures were hers Her struggles were his His gains were her’s and they melded their love into an imperishable fortress That made the walls of Jericho envious.

Love of One

Don’t try to fulfill the measurements Of someone else’s mold Be enough for yourself Be true to you Be honest with you Love you Cherish you Honor yourself before anyone else
