When we met, you saw through me, past a fading smile veiled in darkness. You saw the sadness, the grief, and the longing. You wiped the tears and quieted the screams. You held my hand through the many nights I asked, “Why?”
I never knew my life could hold such meaning. I was surrounded by the endless monotony of days never ending. Now, I chase and clutch every day, every precious minute that we share. Time seems to fade into a blur and although the realization makes me sad, I smile at my complete happiness.
You are my home, my inner peace, and my sanctuary. The heavens could echo my thoughts and words throughout the firmament for a thousand years, but I could still never put into words the way I truly feel. I cannot possibly live up to what you deserve or what I feel I should be for you, to you, and because of you.
All I can promise you is every second, every moment we are granted will be ours to share, ours to remember and treasure. I will always look at you and words will fail me. Writings will fall woefully short. Love and gratitude are, at times, to great and transcendent to fit into such finite things as words or thoughts.
For these few, brief, happy moments I am and always will be grateful. It is undying, unchanging, and ever-growing. In a world plagued with disappointment and sadness, you will always be my solace, my home, the place to which I always return.

I love the amount of passion and emotion you’ve managed to write into your words. It feels like I’m reading the wedding speech of someone so wholly in-love that they spent days just trying to transcribe even just a fraction of those immense feelings. Great work!
