He waited all day
And he waited all night
He was wondering if his decision was right
Taking such a big step was such a fright
But at last he finally saw
Without a pause without a doubt
Without her in his life he could not be without
She walked through the door
His heart lept, his jaw to the floor
She was a vision, a dream he's had since a child
Her presence wasn't strong, nor was it mild
She fit him perfectly
Without effort, easily
He gave a smirk
He watched her eat her dessert
For she wouldn't ever have a sweet so special
Bite by bite he watched her
Bite, bite, bite, she found it
He just knew her answer, they were a perfect fit
He just needed her answer
A second passed for her to take it all in
He stood up and kneeled beside her
She gasped again
He asked her to join him on journey of life
He asked her to become his wife
She said yes, she would join him in his life's endeavors
And that they would be together for eternity
For forever.
