My Witness

I make my vow to you,
under the sun and the skies,
the moon and the stars,
to be your forever witness.

Just like you are mine.

I say these words to you,
in front of friends and family,
well-wishers and passer-by’s,
as an affirmation of my love for you.

Just like your love for me.

You are…
the most significant person I know,
my favourite celebrity,
the smartest,
the kindest,
the loveliest person,
who looked at me and chose me
despite my faults and shortcomings,
my sins and my ills…

You looked at me.
As I looked at you.

You told me you love me
And my love for you overflowed.

You are my everything
You are my beloved.
You are my life

And I am yours.
