to my husband

I love to hear you say, “I love you,”

You tell me at least three times every hour.

I love to see you smiling at me,

You have no idea of its power.

You can always make me laugh,

and you’ve always been able to.

You can never make me sad,

unless you go somewhere I can’t follow you.

I don’t see you as separate from myself,

we are one and the same.

I don’t see a life without you,

that’s why I’ve happily taken your name.

We’ll never have to sever,

our roots entwined like ropes.

We’ll always be together,

at least that is my hope.

I love you more every single day,

My heart near yours always beats faster.

I love you more than words can say,

I’ll love you forever and after.

- Your Wife.
