It Is You (I Have Loved)
By: Dana Glover
There is something that I see
In the way you look at me
There's a smile, there's a truth in your eyes
But an unexpected way
On this unexpected day
Could it mean this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
It's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved all along
There were times I ran to hide
Afraid to show the other side
Alone in the night without you
But now I know just who you are
And I know you hold my heart
Finally this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
It's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved all along
Over and over
I'm filled with emotion
Your love, it rushes through my veins
And I am filled
With the sweetest devotion
As I, I look into your perfect face
It's no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You're the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved
It is you I have loved
It is you I have loved all along

After having said good-bye to Ceres, Anthony paced about in his room for a moment and then went to his unpacked bag of clothes. He pulled out a pair of black leather pants and a clean white short sleeve shirt. What he had been wearing all day was fine, save for the fact that he had been working in it and now different stains were upon the material. He handed Faith a new blue jumper to wear with a white shirt to wear underneath. She took the clothing in her arms and grabbed for herself a pair of new socks with frills along the edges before going into the refresher to change. Anthony quickly changed clothes and put the other pair of pants and the shirt in a hamper he had bought earlier that day. Smiling, he waited for Faith to leave the refresher before going in himself. She did so quickly and he went in to run a comb through his brown shoulder length hair. Having done so and deciding that shaving was not necessary for he had done it earlier that day, he tucked in his white shirt and walked out into the living areas to put on a pair of black boots. Lacing them up, Faith stood by and watched with wide-eyed curiosity. It had been such a long time since the man had been out -- before Faith was born five years ago -- and his heart raced with excitement and anticipation.
"Almost ready to go."
He said softly. After kissing Faith on the cheek, he looked toward her bag of unpacked toys and things, then quickly fetched them for her.
"Play for a few minutes and I'll be right back."
Without getting her approval, Anthony shot to the door and left for what seemed like only a minute, though it had really been close to eight. When he returned, he held two beautiful red roses in each hand, and a bright smile was upon his face.
"Alright, we're ready to pick Ceres up!"
Without further conversation, Anthony placed both roses in his right hand and took up Faith in his left arm. She laced her arms around his neck and he carried her off down the hall, shutting the door with his foot before continuing on in the direction Ceres had pointed him. He rounded the corner and then he saw her standing outside of her door. Smiling, Anthony approached her and rested his deep brown eyes upon her face.
"You look lovely, Ceres. And here, this is for you -- and one for my other pretty lady tonight."
With that he handed one red rose to Ceres and one to Faith. His daughter's face lit up like a lightbulb and he could clearly see now that she had dressed herself without flaw -- for previously it had not crossed his mind. Sighing a bit of relief, he looked back up to Ceres and smiled warmly, the serenity in his presence enveloping the entire hallway.
"Shall we?"
He offered his arm to Ceres and a hand to his little girl.
