Analysis of A Real Love
The storms of life may hit us hard.
They may damage dreams
as our plans get jarred.
Our love may weather much,
but in your loving touch
I've found a haven of safety.
Out love will always be
a place for me to hide
from dreams we've set aside,
and things we've been denied.
As we walk hand in hand
to our secret land,
I find my precious man
protecting me.
