Till Death Do Us Part

My eyes lay upon the way
In sceptical and anticipation 
I know I needed someone
Till death do us part.

 I saw her come to me
In her coruscating lissom figure,
was touched by the softness of her eyes,
the peaceful temperament 
That I shall see,
Till death do us part.

I walked in my swaggering gait
majestically in braggadocio style
her presence responded to my need.

my first looked at her
something special I saw
the right way
to eternal bliss.

Through her eyes, bright like candles aglow,
shine like daffodils in bloom,
Her lips sweet like nectar
I shall drink my water from there
Till death do us part.


Her simulacrum the reverberation of my ideal
invading my memories 
Till death do us part.

I met her virgin
of the Holy Mary offspring,
Modestly and inartificial true,
All through natural beauty.

Have sauntered cities and countries 
High hills and valleys
have seen many ways
not as beautiful as hers.

We have so much to give to the world,
so much to give to ourselves,
To our offspring, 
Through the gift of ourselves, 
Till death do us part.
