Forever and For Always

 

 

Speaking new words for the same undying feelings
Learning to translate vows to a life with you
Loose interpretations of our love that is its own language
We beat the odds of all that aims to sabotage
As our first year is just one of many to come
You are the destination that satisfies my wandering
When everyday reproves the fact that you'll always be the one

Starting from the beginning, I reminisce
You stole my heart with your smile
I gave it to you and you reciprocated my affections with a kiss
As soundtracks play in the background
Coldplay says it best in "something just like this"
When every moment we're apart is another opportunity to miss

Anticipation between the moments we're together
What is love and what is marriage
But the beauty and frustration of cultivating happiness
Somewhere between the work it takes and basking in this bliss
You're worth it all to me and I wouldn't trade you for the world
Because apart from you there is nothing but emptiness

First steps of our one year old love song
And our pivotal seconds founded on initial memory
I was reborn in your arms
And my life took on new meaning as I opened up my eyes to see
Despite all the pitfalls that got us to this place
All that we've been through merely reaffirmed a sense of destiny
What can I say that isn't already said in the way you move like poetry
Ebbing and flowing on the shorelines of my heart
Hand and hand we match in perfect symmetry

Despite the ways we differ on preferences and varied tastes
We agree on all that matters most, and I've found my home in you
Cause even when we're apart our hearts embrace
And our ever enduring patience proves our love is true

You'll always be my world and my favorite point of view
You inspire the very best in me... "I like me better when I'm with you"
Happy Birthday and Anniversary, thank you for loving me in everything you do
Even as we grow old together, we'll be forever young, when everyday our love is new...
