Analysis of The Loving Way

Sherry Caayupan 1980 (Davao city)



You are the essence of beauty,
A beautiful man in your prime;
You took me away from fantasy,
Gave each day a sunlight bright;

You gave me unending inspiration,
Made the ancient become new;
A real love, no uttered illusion,
Like a song in my mind you sing on to;

You looked through the very heart of me,
Never found a flaw nor fault;
I'll be loving you eternally,
In your eyes I won't ever be small;

You are truthfully the picture of kindness,
I never will ask for more;
This could be honest to goodness,
A perfect way to heaven's door.
