Oh the soft sounds of movement in the heart!

They watch the ink stain a story of love

A word written, an eternal I do

Their tale, a turning page, a crafted kiss

Oh the years, droplets of blessings and tears!

Hands stay entwined in the waves at their shores

The beats of their bond splash rhythms of trust

Oh how their love keeps a case on their hearts!

And brings life to the silence in the sounds!

A speck of grey interrupts the newness

As time slinks, slithers and begins to steal

Lined hands now grasp in a way never known

The creases of an oath now etched in stone

A book, its chapters seem settled in love
