No matter what should come in future time,
Remember what this feels like, here, beside
The one you love: this swelling of the tide
Within your heart, your love now at its prime;
The way you feel so treasured and sublime,
And know that this is where you could reside
Forever, full of joy and wonder-eyed,
A little world kept warm with kiss and rhyme.
Remember this place, for in future days,
Though we find ourselves again bewildered, lost,
Alone and hurting, and wondering at the ways
Of mysterious love, I swear I will exhaust
All I am to regain you; united, past every fear,
We’ll find the way that leads us back to here.
