(A lone voice whispers)
I'll buy a white silk ribbon
Tonight
From O'Mallys
My love
On our golden wedding anniversary
Lay it on your favourite glass dresser
The one we bought in the snow
A few months ago
Light one of your white perfumed candles near it from Reardon and Sons
Visualise all our cherished memories
Together
Within it
Then tie it
Into a sacred white bow
And gently kiss it and put it under
One of your favourite blue pillows
That way
We'll sleep together
Every night
Especially tonight
Real close
Even though you're gone
Like we once used to do
For our love is still stronger than death
And lasts beyond the grave
And it's how I
Now a lone survivor
With Charlie
That beautiful dog
You once bought as a birthday surprise
Wait
Praying for you
In one of God's
Repentance, grief filled Caves
Continue
Continue in absolute hope
With our beloved happy memories of you
Lighting our way
Through this firefly-lit blackness
Like one of those white perfumed candles in our bedroom
With all the crazy things
We once used to do

I've known him all my life
And still do now he's gone
Leaving behind his kids and wife
Memories that live on
I watched him from the younger side
Through the struggles and the strife
Never knowing they were there
As he never once broke his stride
I strive to be like him
In stature to be found
Holding tight to his beliefs
Because he made a vow
Never dwelt on could have been's
Or if only I had done's
Taking what was thrown at him
Be it treasure or be it mud
He knew he served a purpose
And his purpose was his word
Always being first us
Anything less was unheard
Gone too many years
Now for me to count
But through the laughter, joy, and tears
I'm glad he kept his vow
Daily thankful that is something
He passed along to me
A promise made a promise kept
To my own family
As I do battle in the thick and thin
That is often thrown my way
Remembering my time with him
And the purpose he displayed
Although it's not always easy
I'm sure that too he often found
But like the man before me
I also made a vow
“Love, Trust, and Forgiveness are the foundations of marriage."
In marriage, many days will bring happiness, while other days may be sad. But together, two hearts can overcome everything…
In marriage, all of the moments won’t be exciting or romantic, and sometimes worries and anxiety will be overwhelming. But together, two hearts that accept will find comfort together.
Recollections of past joys, pains, and shared feelings will be the glue that holds everything together during even the worst and most insecure moments.
Reaching out to each other as a friend, and becoming the confidant and companion that the other one needs, is the true magic and beauty of any two people together.
It’s inspiring in each other a dream or a feeling, and having faith in each other and not giving up… even when all the odds say to quit.
It’s allowing each other to be vulnerable, to be himself or herself, even when the opinions or thoughts aren’t in total agreement or exactly what you’d like them to be.
It’s getting involved and showing interest in each other, really listening and being available, the way any best friend should be.
Exactly three things need to be remembered in a marriage if it is to be a mutual bond of sharing, caring, and loving throughout life: Love, Trust, and Forgiveness.”

The holy and sacred swear
Is made by the groom and bride;
Let true love live in their hearts,
Instead of the hate and pride.
Yes, they are no longer two
But one in the Almighty;
Going not separate ways,
They remain in unity.
Partners for better or worse,
They gladly stay together;
No matter what may happen,
They care for one another.
Trials will certainly come
To test the lifetime union;
Undaunted despite the threat,
The couple will just hang on.
They will never break their oath,
Hoping for the glorious bliss;
Until the very last breath,
They keep the sacred promise.

I vow to thee, my England,
my home is what she be,
my heart and soul for England,
there's no where else for me.
We may not be in Europe,
our empire may be gone,
but don't let it be forgot,
old England's standing strong.
We may not rule the seas now,
but still we're standing free,
in past our ways spread the world,
no greater legacy.
We did what others could not,
as it fades from memory,
while pride we have does not,
this England lives in me.
I vow to thee my England,
my England's all I be,
our land does not surrender,
our land which made the free.
I vow to thee my homeland,
I vow to my country,
I vow to thee my England,
forever we will be,
We ask God to save our noble Queen,
our Queen that leads us free,
we allow her be our Queen now,
united unity.
I sing this for my England,
I sing this cus I'm free,
as we stand as different races,
one England family.
We'll fight them on the beaches,
our red and white won't cease,
as we create a place where peace lives,
hope and glory days are these.
Our England is a fortress,
Fortuitous are we,
our England here before us,
forever this will be,
our England lives in me.
I vow to thee my England,
of England are we,
as we stand as different races,
our England family.
Vow
I love you…
With every drop of every tear,
That I will ever spill from my eyes.
With every bead of sweat,
That will ever fall from my brow.
You are my reason for joy;
You are my reason for pride.
Until the end of all that which could ever be;
Until even after I have died…
You are my reason;
Our new life starts now.
For now we begin as one;
We are no longer two.
From now I will always stand proudly at your side.
From now until the end,
Through thick and through thin…
You will be my truth.
I will love you, like I always have, until the end of time.
I will love you, even after I have long since died.
I will love you after there are no longer disco stars in the sky!
I will love you forever and even after we have each risen up on high.
Because you love me,
I already have,
All I will ever need,
To make me happy.

D-arkness has just turned
I-nto a break of sunny day;
A-nother dawn is shining,
N-ight chill has gone away.
N-ew morn has broken, when the sun starts to ascend;
E-arly lights fill the sky as I feel the warmth they send.
C-louds begin to disappear
A-fter the rain stops to fall;
B-eneath the lanes up above
A-re voices that greet and call.
R-ecorded sound of songs
L-ets you hear them softly;
E-ars of you feel the comfort when you're eased the way it should be.
L-onely evening is over,
A-s the twilight passes from view;
M-arch twenty-sixth this year,
B-irth of you is far from blue.
I-nclement clime turns fine,
N-o more mist in the air;
I-nside my heart is the wish,
C-heer and joy I want to share.
I-'m so very happy for you, because of who you are now;
O-ne lady who is so faithful, always keeping the unbroken vow.
One life,one choice
No regrets, just rejoice.
The dreams and smiles
Follow endless miles...
The promise of love,the vow of togetherness,
The sacrifices and the forgiveness...
In this life and then after
To be together, should only matter.
The moments and memories that I treasure
Is there a way to measure?
A promise that is eternal and heavenly
A feeling that is wonderful and lively...
A mystery untold
A secret,wise and bold...
The secret,he who understand
Will know the pain one has,all the storms, withstand.
A feeling so deep,year after year
Will shout louder,without fear.
The silent cries,the invisible tears,
A secret so precious, in heart one bears.
The broken desire, the burning soul
Has the will,to reach the goal.
He who knows the vows and Virtue
Will know the feelings,real and true...
A promise buried in the heart and sealed
Will it ever be revealed?
Empty seashore
The seashore is empty!
In the sea breeze, a vision—
your form!...
a puzzle!... with the pieces of your absence
joined in the refrain of the lapping waves—
pebbles, seaweed, and seashells.
Upon the emerging pebbles,
your light tread!...
An Aphrodite passing by,
steeped in the brine of youth,
leaving behind—in the fading wave—
a note of a wild waltz for this refrain.
Amidst the tangled seaweed,
your embrace!...
tight against the body of beauty,
loosened in the storm of desire,
two rose petals surrendered to the foam,
a note of stolen love—this refrain.
Upon the broken shells,
a shared promise—
the vow of an eternal love,
violated in the shifting sands,
like a shipwreck’s keel snapped in two;
the empty shoreline—a puzzle piece.
Long and softlike Habutai silk your hair surrounds me
gathering like soft golden clouds, engulfing me with pure pleasure.
Your supple lips pout wordless whisperslingering longingly against my cheek,as feline softness presses firm against my longing body.
Cool satin fingers caress warm tingles through my sensile skin
so soft, it is, it takes my breath away, leaving my burning chest empty,
as silken strands entwineso slowlyin pilous brush, pure ecstasy,
leaving me breathless, knowing for this moment, I would gladly die for you.
