It binds two souls together
in an infinite embrace
as tender as a kiss
gracing a loving face
It plays a gentle song
two hearts sing as one
that beats the sweetest melody
and warms us like the sun
It shields us from sorrow
guards us against life's storms
wraps us in contentment
secure in loving arms
It will be with us forever
set our spirits free
bless us as we're sleeping
within a sweet, sweet dream
It's compassionate, forgiving
accepts us as we are
it leaves us all aglow
shining like a star
True love never dies
as a river becomes the sea
it's within the flow of the universe
as pure as the air we breathe

I really thought this poem was beautiful and the background was great too. I think the flow needs a little bit of work seeing as in some spots it feels a tad choppy. The other suggestion I have is to try and find a using a wider variety of words like in stanza two you use the word "sing and sings" and it just sounds repetitive. And then there was the expression "wraps us in" and then you used the word "within." Granted you used two different words but they provided the same image and didn't give the reader a new thought or idea.
But please be assured I thought this was a good piece, I was just trying to find some helpful suggestions for you.
Last stanza was my favorite !
