O lassie, I were loving you far longer than I knew,
And I would have you know of it, before the eve were through.
Through fair and feisty weather,
We shall face it all together,
And our hearts shall be our tether,
If you will but say "I do".
I want to bring you home in your wedding dress,
Like a beautiful flower to sunlight,
I want you in your best,
My queen.
I have a ring size,
It's just your perfect fit,
Now all I am asking is:
Will you marry me?
I want to wake with scents of you,
With troubles and doubts really being few,
I want to make you meals,
Soups, quick chops and sometimes, stew.
I have a ring size,
It's just your perfect fit,
Now all I am asking is:
Will you marry me?
Yes we would bask in this wine called love,
Mate for life like little turtle doves,
A madness for affection,
One we'll need no cure.
I have a ring size,
It's just your perfect fit,
Now all I am asking is:
Will you marry me?
I speak a language,
One only your body understood,
A tongue you spoke,
One only I could interpret.
I have a ring size,
It's just your perfect fit,
Now all I am asking is:
Will you marry me?
Dream
Will you not even give me the right to dreams?
If you can't fulfill them, then you won't even give me the desire to shape a life with you?
I've died so much in this love; I, one such soul,
Don't want to become a traveler in your dreams.
I don't want to hold your hand and then let go.
You too forget me, who knows when breaths shatter and come...
Breaking completely, who knows when this dream will end.

Last night as I drifted off to sleep
My dream filled my mind with you
A dream so real I had to make a wish
That someday my dream would come true
We were standing by the waters edge
On a beautiful white sandy shore
We were lost in each other's eyes
I was longing as you craved for more
I wrap my arms snugly around you
And I held you there close and tight
As we watch the sun fall in the ocean
And the stars shine on our perfect night
After a while you turned looking at me
We both leaned in and our lips they met
Loves was tingling its way down my spine
I knew then my future with you was set
I knew that I had to have you forever
From now to the last day of my life
I had no ring but that didn't stop me
I asked you if you would be my wife
One couple pledge
A marriage vow
Build golden dream.
Together bound
Sewed a love thread
Desiring trend.
Side by side sit
Facing altar
Promise each kept.
Hand in hand grip
Switching ring
Switch vow, kissing.
You carry an innocent soul
As you wearing that white gown
He still have a lot of repentance
But why are you still confused
He's carrying this manly responsibility
His heart is going crazy right now
As he ask you to wear that wedding ring
Both parties turn into God and legal
As this luck hit two blessing in one time
A son in the belly and him in your heart.
I have waited this length of years for you,
desiring the sun to set on your will.
I followed you closely as my love grew.
At your own very command I stood still,
when you called me with your sweet sounding voice.
I have enslaved my own will for your choice.
For your tears I provide my own shoulder.
I am none else but your beauty's beholder.
Do accept my ring as I humbly kneel.
Your swift response will my anxiety heal.
From guy's perspective
Proposal is such a heart thing
Girl's feel expensive.
As the year closes, Dave smells the roses
To his girlfriend Dina he proposes
Though he thought 'Nothing's wrong'
Dave had waited too long
On Dave's roses Dina soon forecloses
You are in my dreams a future with you I hope to come true
My life will never be complete without you
True love did not exist until you came into my life
I kneel before you with a ring in hand hoping you will become my wife
The room goes silent nothing to be heard
My stomach fills with butterflies awaiting her word
Tears begin to flow from her adoring eyes
My body has become frozen in time awaiting her reply
She reaches over and whispers in my ear
A hug and a kiss and those magic words I yearn to hear
Now a new life begins two hearts as one
Our journey through life together has just begun
Three boyfriends have I, whom I could marry
Just hit '39' again, so I'd better not tarry
#1's hair is so long and so curly
I don't know anyone cuter
Sleeps all day, and mopes nights away
I call him 'My Active Brooder'
#2 seems polite, a man with some manners
but when he gets mad, ain't nobody ruder
He's into MK-47's, MAGA, the NRA
I call him 'My Active Shooter'
#3's vision's amazing, like Superman's
though frankly, there's nobody lewder
He stares at every skirt that comes his way
I call him 'My Active Denuder'
O, What should I do, I just can't decide
I've got to get married, before I die
Wait - My cat's my best friend, I'll marry him
I'll start a Go-Fund-Me, get 'Jaspar' neutered
The custom's all gone,
No more will there be.
To pledge all your love,
On bended knee.
To give all your heart,
To promise to stand.
Unconditional love,
With the offering of hand.
It's a crying shame,
This custom's all gone.
Marriage used to mean,
For a whole life long.

IT WAS A SEASON OF SPRING,
I WAS GLOWING IN A DIFFERENT WAY,
MY MAN ENTERING MY BUILDING'S WING,
COMING AT MY PLACE TO STAY.
FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS,DISTANCE BETWEEN US WAS LONG,
I LIVED IN BARCELONA, HE LIVED IN ROME,
THE PILLAR OF EMOTIONS FOR EACH OTHER BEING STRONG,
MY HEART WAS FILLED WITH JOY WHEN HE CAME HOME.
HE OFFERED ME TO DANCE,
WHILE DANCING,I ASKED HIM FOR THIS RELATIONSHIP ARE YOU SERIOUS OR AM I A FLING,
HE CONSIDERING IT AS AN APPROPRIATE CHANCE,
SAT ON HIS KNEES AND PROPOSED ME WITH AN ENGAGEMENT RING.
HE SAID YOU AND I HAVE SOMETHING WHICH I NEVER WANT TO LOOSE,
IN MY DARKNESS, YOU ARE MY MOON,
YOU ARE THE ONE WHOM I WILL ALWAYS CHOOSE,
AND I CANNOT WAIT TO MARRY YOU SOON.
IT WAS A SEASON OF SPRING,
I GOT AN ABSOLUTE GORGEOUS ENGAGEMENT RING,
AND WITH THE MAN OF MY DREAMS, A FOREVER THING.
I could watch a horror movie; but, only if you would hold my hand
As all the scary bits would frighten me, I hope you can understand
And you would have to stay a few days until it was out of my head
Be the action hero and check for the monsters underneath my bed
Readily accept calls in the middle of night; I'm having more frights
Fact it would be better if you came over stay for a few more nights
Can't sleep another night without you; without you, I can't recover
Besides, it would be just another nightmare moving in with mother
Yeah, just another horror story moving in with mother . . "Mother"
"Come here ever so my darling!
Come near my frequent flower;
Stand before me in the beauty of the breeze;
Come ever closer as I get on my knee;
~
This question I asked of thee;
Start as easy as it seems!
Would you my dear? Could you my dear;
~
Would you marry me?"
