One year ago today i married the woman of my dreams.
i wrote her these words:
With words I sell you short of all the honor you deserve
For I would praise you for eternity and still not find the verse I wish to say
Everything I ever dreamed of. More than dreams could make me see
So far past my imagination’s furthest reaches could extend
Beside you I find reality is sweeter, than my mind could comprehend
To see the world through your eyes is to see it as it truly is
Awe inspired by your beauty deeper still within my soul
While you send my heart beat racing past the corners of the open sky
Your touch: I’m filled by the truest peace, engulfed with sheer excitement
And your lips send weakness coursing through my knees
You have outshined every woman in this world around this globe
Filled my heart to overflowing with your presence in my life
In you I find more wonder than all the galaxies combined
A million lifetimes worth of sunsets could never match your beauty still
Your soul is filled with goodness pure
Your mind filled with extraordinary art
Your belly with intoxicating laughter
And your backbone with a quiet solid strength
Your eyes are filled with gentle peace
Your mouth with truth that deeply cares
Your ears filled with real compassion
And your heart with faith unswerving to the core
Your legs are filled with urges of excitement
Your feet filled with adventures far and near
Your arms are filled with streams of revolution
And you hands with ceaseless tenderness and love
The rest of who you are completes the full seduction of me
Your lips, your breast, your cheeks, your every curving inch cries out to me
I must taste your every part and become one with you for all of time
But to drink in all of you alone will satisfy my longing heart
Only in forever do I find the time for my souls yearning plead
To know you in the deepest parts, this is my only wish
And you and you alone are worth an infinite forevers
More precious than air to my lungs and blood to my heart which now you own
You are my everything… your beauty eons far beyond realms of my belief
And your soul is far more valuable than any earthly wealth that can be found
And you are mine
and two became one.
and you think you know what love is, but time is teaching it to you still.
There is no end to its growth.
And every day has not been easy... but they have each been more satisfying than the next.
And to know that a woman can lay grasp to all of your affections in such a short time.
and become, save Christ alone, the highest aim of all your love.
i love you,
wife
