Carpe Diem

Will you marry me?

By Yvonaé DessusPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read
Just one " Yes " to start our forever

I love you

Do you hear me?

I love you

From the zing in your eye

To the curl in your hair

I love you, I say

And as we walk hand in hand

In the park

With the wind in our hand

I plan to tell you just how so

From your warm hug

To each race to the car

From the way you hold me when I am down

And the call when we are far

You, my love, make me live even when I want to die

You are my ha ha to the tee hee

You are my now, my was, my is

I love you, I say

You are the old to my grey

You are the true to my love

You are my moon in a dark sky

I love you, I say

You are the one,

The only,

The one I want

And the one I need.

Life with no you is dull my dear

And I want to make this real

I want to see you in that pale snow gown

As we say "I do " with zeal

With a kiss to seal the deal

I love you, I say

I want you now and then,

And ever more.

I love you, I say

I have to make you mine

You are the best part of me

So I want to make you my wife

For you are my life, love.

I want you ten year by ten

So lets not wait mi amor,

As I hide my fear in sobs

I grab your left hand,

A soft kiss to the top

And a slow bow -

I get down on one knee

As I wait to see

If you too love me!

About the Creator

Yvonaé Dessus

A pencil and paper was all I had when my voice was stolen and my depression prisoned me in the white walls of my bedroom. As I learn how to use my voice again, I came here to test out the waters. Hope you like what you see
