When love is hard 
You hold me close 
Make me feel safe 
When love is hard 
You kiss the top of my head 
Nestling yours close to mine 
When love is hard 
You pull me into you 
Wrap your arm around me 
Singing everything will be alright 
When love is hard 
You smile at me 
Letting me know your faith lives on 
When love is hard 
You take away all my fears 
Deep in my heart 
I know love is hard
But love is ours 

The author's comments:
Love is hard. It has ups and downs. When you find it, it's like nothing you've ever imagined. Love is the closest thing we have to magic.
