Who is that who stands beside you
Close as sunshine on your arm
Leaning into you in sweet connection
Blending strength into your strength?
Who is that with whom you whisper
Heads leaning in, touching in support
And easy closeness—who is your companion?
As present as your smile, your voice
Who is this love, and have you even met
And do you know that you don’t walk alone?
That every step you take is harmonized
By this essential presence—bone of your bone?
