Analysis of She Is Greater



His love for her surpasses
all the memories of the past.
She is greater than them all.
His fondest
and most cherished memories
pale in comparison
to the love
and affection
that he has for her.
She is the light.
The bright reflection in his life,
filling it with joy
and endless happiness.

Her presence
Illuminates his days,
Just as the sun does the earth.
Her gentle touch
And tender love
Warms his heart
And fills it
With an overwhelming
Sense of happiness.
The memories of the past may be
Sweet,
But they cannot compare
To the happiness
That she brings
To his life
Every day.
