To God's greatest gift to me,
This is a love letter I write unto you—
with vows I will spend a lifetime keeping,
and a steadfast devotion deeper than the Pacific I offer to you.
There is, and there will never be, another,
for among all the hearts this world has ever known,
it is yours that mine has chosen to call home.
From the moment you walk down that aisle
until our very last breath,
I vow not only to love you,
but to become someone worthy of the love
with which you embrace me.
I cannot promise a life untouched by hardship,
but I can promise that whatever life asks of us,
you will never have to face it alone.
Wherever you go, whatever dreams call your name, I will be there.
Through all that you've been and all that you will become,
through every joy that lifts you and every sorrow that finds you, I will remain.
When you reach the end of your rope,
know that I have been holding the other end all along.
No matter how heavy the world becomes,
you will always have me.
To love you is the greatest privilege God could have entrusted to me.
To witness your laughter, your tears, your victories, your fears,
the quiet corners of your soul that only I am blessed to know—these are gifts I will never take for granted.
And perhaps my favorite miracle of all is that in a world of billions,
you chose to cherish me.
So if I must, I would pull our red string through galaxies in every lifetime just to find my way back to you.
From the smallest capillaries to the largest arteries of my beating heart,
with every breath I am given and every beat that reminds me I am alive,
I vow to choose you,
to cherish you,
and to love you—today, tomorrow, and for as long as God allows my heart to beat.
