The Proposal

When I held your tiny hand
My fingerprints hold your fingerprints
Your palm lines are wrapped
Around my palm lines
I would bend the love line into a ring
And put it on the fourth finger
Of your right hand
My breath presses your breath
Your heartbeat counts my heartbeat
I am willing to hollow out my chest
To build mansion for you
Falling in love with you
Is the greatest happiness in my life
I will stay by your side for the rest of my life.
