vow

i’ll make you a statement,

an offer of the heart

for you to clutch

once the rush of this day is through.

it is this:

that i will walk beside you,

as we stumble through this life, 

in Love;

and i will stay there, if you’ll wait up for me, through all that it brings.

-september 26, 1998

 

happy anniversary, honey. i love you.
