Never Let Go
I don’t have a fragile heart,
But I keep going for routine heart check ups
Just to be convinced that the walls of my left ventricle are still intact
And I keep going for constant chest X-rays
Not because I have any chest pain or shortness of breath
I basically check if I still have my lungs
Since you always suffocate me… But I still breathe fine…
I’m not trying to say that you break my heart
But you make me shed tears sometimes
And most of the time it’s because you excite me
You make me laugh
Especially when you ask if I’d kneel to propose
Or if I will say my vows loud for everyone to hear
I usually say no
Not because I don’t want to, but…
Because the only time I want to kneel is…
When I’ll be thanking God for giving me what’s best for me
Even though I asked for what’s good for me….
… Because once is not enough for my vows
I want to whisper my vows to you each morning
Just to give you the assurance that I don’t plan to forget
Just to be certain we’re Living Our Vows Everyday
You have a love that feels like lust and is unique
And I may have no ring for your finger
But I can give you things that will make you linger
Things like memories that will make you glow
As if you painted a ray of sunshine all over your face
Or even something valuable, like my loving heart
For I know you understand its value
Keep it, hold it close and firm…
Never let go.
