Dear You

You,
Dear,
Own me
Heart and soul
Body and Spirit.
My love is yours for the taking;
Openly and freely, I gave you them long ago
When you took my hand, and we promised before all to honor and cherish forever.
Forever will never be long enough to return the Heart Joys your love created within me, nor to express all that is in my heart.

(last line is too long for one line here) This is a first attempt at the form.
