"I want to marry you."
That's what I heard you say,
"I want to spend my life with you
eact and every day.
I want to wake up to you,
your smiling, peaceful face.
These things I want for all time.
And I pray,
that God will make you mine.
I was confused and I was scared,
but now my head has cleared.
I know what I want-
it's you by my side."
To hear you say these things to me
was music to my ears.
For my wish is the same as yours;
that we should never part.
I don't dare say my thoughts aloud
but I hope you do know
the love that flows for you
is true.
I hope you know that I too want us to be joined.
To be together,
forever,
til death do us part.
I want to marry you too.

uuummmmm, maybe i'm just a cynical b_*_*, but think you need to stop reading cliched, cheesy love poems, they're taking you nowhere but the bottomless pit of ushy mushy pointless, i-could-never-live-without-you crappy poems, yes this is critical anysis. come on, he wants to marry you not read some cheesy, unoriginal rhyming poem about what he wants to hear, get some sense up there! this is marriage, not eternity, and don't give me any 'true love' crap, how old are you, and what fairy tales have been spewing this into your ears, and most importantly, why have you been listening?!?! give him truth, and usually the truth isn't an overly-tired rhyming poem about eternity and that andless boringness called true love.
