because i do

by Morgan D Hafele

i love you higher than the sky
and deeper than the ocean.
even when the sun breaks
and the solar system is blown
into distant corners of the universe
we will still be strong,
floating through rivers of stars.
super glue's got nothing
on the way we stick together.
when you whispered my name
for the first time
in your dreams
my heart exploded
and i thought
i wouldn't breath again,
but then your eyes opened
and my life was saved.
i held you in my eyes and my arms
and the world
was forever changed.
even if you loose your way back home,
remember
i will always love you
higher than the sky
and deeper than the ocean.

Way to take up the dare, and turn it into something grand.

This is cute Morgan. Personally, I have a hard time writing on demand, but maybe all I need is someone to supply the first two lines. Nepal? Wow! Have you written any others about your trip???

This is stunningly beautiful; some of the richest imagery I've seen.
