I love you -- forever.
Words engraved on my heart,
more durable than etchings in gold,
more eternal than that infinite ring.
I cried tears of joy,
and my universe changed.
The sky turned peaceful and blue,
your eyes held me softly.
A cute round belly in white overhauls,
remember the paint? A masterpiece!
A beautiful boy, no two, no three,
we've raised them all in love and wonder.
We don't always agree.
In fact, we cause quite a raucous.
You're very short, so it makes sense
that we don't always see eye to eye.
Now we're apart, but it's nobody's fault.
The days tick by slowly,
time...creeps...by...
my heart is a shell, aching and sore.
But I'll see you soon, my love.
Just one smile, my soul finally healed.
So it will be always, because
I love you--forever!
