I do

8 1 0
                                    

I gasp with awe

a moment of epiphany 

seated right opposite to me she is

I cherish her laughter 

her happiness

she wears it like a cloak of honor 

I may have forgotten to blink 

but not to steal glances of her 

every minute, hour and day that passes by. 

The void in my heart 

is filled with her presence

She calls out Looooohith! Do you have a spare pen?

drifting to the never future

I replay it in my head 

forty eight frames per second 

with added symphony 

my name with chimes  

standing beside me

the bride to be

with same happiness 

contagious and lovely 

Do you take her as your lawful wife? 

I slip back and reply  

I do.
