Catching stars on lonely seas
Left me cold, no air to breath
Shadows long and darkened sight
The Universe falling, lost all its light
Then you came along and opened the seams
You entered my heart and filled it with dreams
Conversations, reflections, you blossomed in words
Unintentional puns and intentional verbs
I put down my sword, you showed me what's right
That love isn't war, I surrendered my fight
The journey of two, penned by the Author of Truth
Is the story I see, your existence my proof
Like paintings come true, your beauty is real
The heart of an angel, resolve cast in steel
Your permission to grant, let me love you with grace
Along with my weaknesses, my strengths and my faith
We'll journey to mountains where moons kiss the earth
And travel in each other as mysteries give birth
Your hand wrapped in mine, your spirit my treasure
I'll protect and I'll lead you, through pain and through pleasure
We'll laugh at the comedies, and cry at atrocities
And talk pure gibberish, along with philosophies
We'll eat like the kings, we'll sit lazy like sand
We'll poke at each other 'til we can no longer stand
I'm humbled, my love, that you've finally come
We'll live through eternity as two become one
My promise is yours, your loveliness mine
Let's start this adventure through space and through time.
