The Beauty of Love's Aging Gracefully: A Journey Through Time



My love, with every passing day, I see
The lines etched deeper on your face, the gray
That streaks your hair, and yet I love you more
For growing old with me, my heart's adored
Companion in this life. We've shared our joys
And sorrows, and the best is yet to be.

Our youth may be a distant memory,
But in your eyes, I see the same bright glee
That captured me so long ago. Our joys
May differ now, but we can still employ
Our wit and charm to make each other adored,
And cherish all the days we have in store.

The years ahead may hold uncertainty,
But I'm not afraid as long as you're with me.
I'll take your hand and face what's yet in store,
For I have faith that we can face it all with glee.
Our bond has grown more precious to employ
With every challenge faced and overcome with joy.

Though time may take its toll, we'll still be adored
By each other, even as we're growing old.
And when we look back on our days with glee,
We'll see the beauty of a life well-lived with me,
Together facing every trial we employ
And cherishing the love that's yet to be.

Our love has stood the test of time and more,
Through seasons, decades, challenges galore.
The wrinkles on our skin, the slowing gait
Are mere reminders of the love so great
That's bound us through the years, our hearts employed
In building a bond that will not abate.

Together we have laughed, cried, and employed
Our hearts and souls in ways that we adore.
The journey of our love has not been smooth
But we have learned to navigate each groove
And found our way back to the path so great,
That binds us still with the strongest of faith.

As we grow old, our love will not abate,
But rather, it will blossom and employ
A beauty that is timeless, pure, and great.
We'll cherish every moment that's in store,
And make each day a joy that we adore,
Living each moment to the fullest, smooth.

The days may not be perfect, but still, smooth
Enough to treasure every single abate
Of time that we can share, and to adore
Each other more with every moment employed.
Our love has aged like wine, it's worth the more
As we both grow old, it tastes all the greater.

For time has made our bond so much greater,
And in its imperfection, made it smooth,
An ode to the beauty of love that endures more
Than all the challenges that may abate
Our joy, that we may not always employ
But never forget, and always adore.

My love, as we grow old, let's always adore
Each other more, and cherish the greater
Moments we share, employing all our joy.
Let's make our path in life as smooth
As we can make it, and never abate
The love that binds us close forevermore.

For growing old is not a curse but more,
A testament to love we do adore.
Our hearts are smooth and our passion won't abate
As we age gracefully, our love grows greater,
Embracing every moment we employ,
And living life with joy that knows no bound.

So let's employ the love we have adored
And grow old together, greater than before,
Our path in life so smooth, our joy unbound.
