Analysis of In The Midst Of Life



Real love takes more than flowers
Means more than beautiful words
Real love means keeping promises
Holding on when you don't want to
Being strong so others may rest
And as times change and swirl around us
The love we share
Stands quietly in the midst of our lives
Forever beautiful
Forever real
