My Devotion

My devotion is such that it would carry far

In life’s pursuits and in as much as you might like.

I am certain it will remain so should we fight.

Do not tremble or fear; it changes not what we are.

In every new sun and all of my heartbeats you star

In the story of a happy time that is my daily life.

And I shall never let it end that I’m your wife.

Always and forever I am held content in your arms.

Sweet winds of time and passing phases

Understand what my awkward words are for.

Nothing graces well enough the gentle soar

Of feelings inside my heart’s most joyful places.

Be kind to us, oh fate of good and bad and in-between.

And do not put my bold and hopeful vows to false esteem.
