...And Then
by Michael Romani

I used to think
That I wasn't attached to anything
I used to drink
Worried about silly things adding up to nothing
But, everybody-
Everyone is attached to something
And that something for me
Is symbolized in my wedding ring
That something for me?
Is you -

I used to think
That would never, ever find
The magic in a wink
That I could never, ever leave behind
And then, there it is
With our fingers laced and souls intertwined
That something to which I am bound
Your smile and laughter always on my mind
And now I know just what I've found
In the love you give to me -
