A Promise in Rhythm, A Vow with Rhyme

by pearls-of-white

I will love you in the morning and in the mornings after that. I will wake you everyday, cook your breakfast, make you fat. I will run your errands, wash the car, clean the dishes. I will do your homework and even finish your thesis! I will swim the deepest oceans, ride a bike downhill and I'll accomplish these goals, 'cause you've strengthened my will. I will sit for hours with you, locked in meaningful stare, utterly convinced no other beauty could possibly compare. I will listen and understand, wait for you to make up your mind; because of you, I've learned other ways of being kind. I will hold your hand in public, hug and kiss you as I please. Our Love Spectacular will be known across the Seven Seas! I will feed your ego, as you would feed mine. "Yes, that dress makes your ass look damn fine!" I will take baths with you, and if I may be so blunt: I will wash your back, but be more thorough with your front. I will search for more films, more books for us to read but you'll always be the only entertainment I'll ever need. I will sing your fav'rite songs, and we'll make up a few of our own. We will sing them to our children, even when they've fully grown. We will grow old together, but I will look older than you. I'd consider myself a good husband if you don't age past twenty-two! Eventually I will forget plenty of these things, I bet. But know, one of these I hold dear. My love, let me make this properly clear: With you, I will love every moment eternal--- in fact, I will love you in the morning and in the mornings after that.
