The Proposal

For those about to pop the question

Wrapped around a finger

Once an uncharted land

Now new hemispheres captured

Around your entire hand

Eyes of sky blue

Skin of snow white

A feeling of love so intense

That I can no longer fight

Cannot fight true love

Yet, a willing surrender

Never had I had a love

So genuine and tender

So scared to fall in love

To show how much I care

Now the only thing I am scared of

Is a world without you there

All the love and happiness

The joy you freely bring

Around your precious finger

I am envisioning a ring

I promise to love

In sickness and in health

I promise you I will give

The very best of myself

My immortal beloved,

Absolute love of my life

Will you be my lifelong partner

Will you become my wife??
