Why Marriage?

Because to the depths of me, I long to love one person,
With all my heart, my soul, my mind, my body...

Because I need a forever friend to trust with the intimacies of me,
Who won't hold them against me,
Who loves me when I'm unlikable,
Who sees the small child in me, and
Who looks for the divine potential of me...

Because I need to cuddle in the warmth of the night
With someone who thanks God for me,
With someone I feel blessed to hold...

Because marriage means opportunity
To grow in love in friendship...

Because marriage is a discipline
To be added to a list of achievements...

Because marriages do not fail, people fail
When they enter into marriage
Expecting another to make them whole...

Because, knowing this,
I promise myself to take full responsibility
For my spiritual, mental and physical wholeness
I create me,
I take half of the responsibility for my marriage
Together we create our marriage...

Because with this understanding
The possibilities are limitless.

I carry your heart with me

I carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart)i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)

i fear

no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart).

With you in my heart, my life is complete

With you in my heart, my life is complete,
You're the air that I breathe and the food that I eat.
You are my soul mate, the beat in my heart,
It feels like a year each second we're apart.

With you in my heart I'm walking on air,
I can imagine your perfume and the touch of your hair.
Your beautiful eyes, so kind and so green,
The loveliest sight I ever have seen.

With you in my heart, I am brim full of pride,
It's as though i can achieve anything with you by my side.
You're my rock, you?re my angel, my one true love,
You're my present from heaven, my gift from above.

With you in my heart, I love you so much,
How caring you are, my soul you do touch.
You're a beautiful princess, a pleasure to know,
My love for you just continues to grow.

With you in my heart, I'm the happiest man on earth,
I feel God has planned this since the day of my birth.
I could never love anyone the way I love you,
I hope and I pray that you feel the same way too.

With you in my heart, through the good and the bad,
I'll be there when you need me, when you're hurting or sad.
In fact I'll be there for you any night, any day,
Whenever you need me, you just have to say.

With you in my heart, it really makes my day,
With the things that you do and the things that you say.
You and Eva deserve happiness and I will ensure,
From now, only good times come knocking at your door.

With you in my heart, I hope it feels good,
And that I am caring for you the way that I should.
I will always be happy, just by the love that you give,
I will protect you and love you for as long as I live.

These I Can Promise

 

I cannot promise you a life of sunshine;
I cannot promise riches, wealth, or gold;
I cannot promise you an easy pathway
That leads away from change or growing old.
But I can promise all my heart's devotion;
A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow;
A love that's ever true and ever growing;
A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.

My Loving Wife

With you is where I want to be,

Together for all the world to see.

Holding hands as we walk down the street,

Spreading cheer to all the people we meet.

When we're together, we will always be one,

And as for sadness, there will be none.

We'll be drowned in happiness all of our life,

I'm very happy that you're my wife.

Going To Miss Him

Best wishes, cheers, hugs and kisses
spread throughout the room
as family and friends gather
to congratulate the bride and groom

he proudly stands next to her
with stars in his eyes
they looks so happy, so in love
it makes me want to cry

childhood memories surface
blurring my vision
as I watch them both
walking down the aisle

I can't help but feel
sadness overwhelm my soul
seems it was just yesterday
when we were ten years old

playing tag on the merry go round
nobody ever said we'd grow up so fast
but somehow, we wound away the years
making memories to last

you know, its funny
how life takes you by surprise
I never thought this day would come
when I'd have to say goodbye...
