A Vow for Lovers

For those in love who wish the world to know how much.

 

These words I write, though eloquent as not of Shakespeare.

Nor have they rhythm and depth those great poets mastered.

But they come with humble testimony to bear for one I hold so dear.

With unconditioned love this path with her I walk which once I feared.

 

Who would have yet thought it possible yes to love again?

As life had shown no mercy given, when hearts were broken.

I with deepening sorrows failed to dull this yearning pain.

Yet now I feel a need again to live, my soul had been awoken.

 

I have no words to speak or write that make sense this happening.

No mortal mind could comprehend those unspoken words that fail me.

It is enough I know though words alone cannot express this feeling.

So pledge I do for all who hear, this love be yours for all eternity.
