The Other Half

You are the other half of the whole Created when wedding bells tolled When we said "to have and to hold" And pledged to join our souls And since, my rock and my anchor The ray of sun through my window My mentor, my muse and defender How deeply I'm ground in your splendor I am also one half of the whole Equally expected to nurture and grow The love that we share, cherish and know Which led to this union of souls So I will be your haven and fortress The moonlight that shines in your darkness Your threshold, stronghold and martyr The giver of all you require For half of what I am now I owe To the other half of the whole
