The day I met you
Was an ordinary day
Until you smiled and
Your fingers caressed my face
Time after time, I faltered
In giving myself to you
~~~~~~~~~
Fear and uncertainty
Lingered from past pain
But at the altar of love,
As my turn came to avow
I’d love, honor and cherish you
I again faltered, not sure
~~~~~~~~~
You smiled and looked down
Into my wide eyed stare
And in your eyes, I saw it
a deep, solid and sincere love
Combined with pure passion
Burning in your loving eyes
The sun, the moon, the stars
All at once became aligned
~~~~~~~~~
The mountains and the rivers
Joined as witnesses of love
With birds singing their melody
Along with our friends, I exhaled
And reached for your hand
And as our fingers clasped tightly
My heart settled, I was there
I had found my home of peace
Beside you, my true love
