My Promise

For Hamid for Valentine’s Day 2026

Home held in your arms

made me whole at last
Each day with you is a gift
And, I give each day to you

Every memory is treasure
You are the rarest of jewels
No dream ever came close
to the revelation of you

Our love is writ in the stars
Every twinkle is our hearts
beating together for all time
Love like ours spans the ages

Eternity conspired to unite us
two hearts together as one
joined in love’s promise
All that you are is all I need

I choose you with every breath
a choice made and made again
Each breath a choice made anew
in every beat of my heart

With every whispered kiss
my heart whispers back
You made my heart whole,
a promise scribed on my heart

The canvas of my life
is the love we share
Love is a promise
And, my promise is yours.
