[hometext] => My poem speaks about love's responsibility and reaction in times of challenges and about its sense of comittment and the need to be there to the end
[bodytext] => Now that we are joined together
To love sincerely and care for each other
In sickness, health or whatsoever
We are now one and our journey's just begun
We stood before the Creator and his creatures
Declaring your undying love
When in confidence you said I do
It echoed loud like a burst of thunder
I'll stand by you
You took me from my zone of comfort
A place I loved called home
From family friends and neighbors
A plenty to venture on a path unknown
Let's remember we are in this together
To start a life without a strife
I'll be there for you
Would you get angry in hurry
If a difference you see in me?
Well my friend I'm not so perfect
But as human as I can be
The picture that you saw of me
Of color and glee
You viewed it then some pace away
But I'm closer now and here to stay
Love goes deeper for nothing hinders
It's mission to gladden your heart
So just remember my friend and lover
There is beauty in the heart
So stand by me
When the pressures of life get stronger
And challenges overwhelms our souls
Will there be patience and kind word to utter
Or barks to part asunder
Or acts to wound me more
Can love withstand the horror
The fury life at times offer
And would words like quitting, mistake
If I had known, stupid and foolish
Be uttered?
Well-Never should this ever be
As long as love exists betwixt me and thee
Then we must stand together
As ou twilight days get shorter
At the setting of the sun
Would we then reflect and ponder
At the race that we had run
Would thr world be a little safer
And a bit more joy to spread around
By our children whose lives we molded
When our journey had just begun
Would our picture look more perfect
And the records say it best
Yes they truly loved each other
For they surely stood together
