Our Vows

A love poem for a Friend

You looked at me, with such love and warmth.
My soul responded with a happy response.

You spoke my name out loud and clear
My heart surrendered to you, then and there.

You touched me with such tenderness
My heart, soul and body surrendered to your caress.

Without a word parting your lips.
I knew you were my hero, my long lost ship

My mind and body became one giant flame.
That only my love for you could contain.

Not knowing what tomorrow had in store
I surrendered my heart to you at your front door.

From that moment until now, you need to know
That I vowed to love you forever more

Speak my name often, and I will respond
For you are my love, my only one.

Nothing can change me or hide me from your gaze.
You will always be my first, my only, for the rest of my days!
