Throw Tradition To the Wind

The greatest day wasn't when
I threw caution (and tradition)
to the wind
And asked for your matrimony
From an 8,000 mile journey.
 
It began with the first glimpse
into those eyes of mahogany
I knew from that moment
We were meant for eternity.

O- my muse, 
We are of the blessed few
Who find each other time and again
Ageless 
Lifetime to lifetime-
Our love will perpetually remain.
