My dearest,


I took you
like a wife,
to have and to hold
to love and cherish
til death do we part...


And after all these years
I'd go crazy without you.
My heart would explode.
My fingers and lips
would be useless,
my nose and tongue
pointless.


So if love is blind
then I must be blind,
deaf and dumb
because you are
the very air I breathe.


I love you
more than life.
