poem

This poem is so sweet.

You are not the air that I breathe,

you are the sweet scent that drifts upon it

You are not the sounds that I hear,

you are the music of my life

You are not the food that I need,

you are the nourishment of my soul

You are not my will to survive,

you are my reason for living

It is with you that I experience the wonders of the world

It is with you that I triumph over the challenges in my path

It is your partnership that will lead me to the fulfillment of my dreams

It is your friendship that guides me as I grow and learn

It is your patience and wisdom that calms my restless nature

It is through you that I know my true self

I do not take you for granted,

I cherish you

I do not need you

I choose you

I choose you today in witness of all the people who love us

I choose you tomorrow in the privacy of our hearts

I choose you in strength and weakness

I choose you in health and sickness

I choose you in joy and sorrow

I will choose you, over all others, every day

for all the days of my life
