Together we can look up at the heavenly stars and smile,
For we know that forever is a promise,
That we have chosen to abide by,
And by knowing the words of each other’s breathe,
Like the back of our palms,
We can confine in each other,
Breaking the rules with the touch of our hearts,
Smothering the open sea,
With just a handful of glances shared by us,
Finally understanding the world that we stand on each day,
Forgiving the ones who by not of choice,
But by fault have let us down,
Carefully placing hands in hand,
Walking side but not by side,
Next to each other,
Replacing beauty with roses,
Colors so great and a many,
Sorrow facing sorrow,
And fighting pain with fingertips,
Setting down the carvers tool,
For we have by God’s will found our place in life,
Creating a boundary capable of crossing,
And swearing on the stone chapel,
That we shall love and cherish each other
For better or for worse,
In sickness and or in heath,
And then strolling down a lane of bitter honey,
That crosses our lips,
But not to have shaken or disturbed,
But to awaken the senses that inside of us,
Posses we do so,
And let fearful come across weak,
And forever share our own power.
