Because

Poet: Adelaide Anne Procter

It is not because your heart is mine - mine only -
Mine alone;
It is not because you chose me, weak and lonely,
For your own;
Not because the earth is fairer, and the skies
Spread above you
Are more radiant for the shining of your eyes
That I love you.....

Your love wipes away each tear.

A gift of love that’s pure and new.
Forever together is where we’ll stay,
You’re my everything, in every way.

I love you today
And tomorrow too
I will love you when I'm gray
My love for you is so true.

I will love you forever
So special are you
In my life you are center
Of all I say and do.

I will love you till death do us part
How sad that day will be

My heart will be sad and heavy.

But, I will see you in eternity
And our love will continue on
A love that will go on in affinity
Like the breaking of the dawn.
