I Still Do Poem by Curtis Johnson

I Still Do



When God saw a universe filled with darkness and void, He said, "Let there be light". In essence, when we first met, I saw the light in you and said, "Let there be a conversation". Two years later, the two of us stood at the altar of our church and said, "I do".We may not have known the deep meaning of, "Let the two become one", but we knew that we were forsaking all others for the sake of each other.We vowed to be together for better or for worse, hoping the worse would not be so bad.Long before we said "I do", we had a long engagement with plenty of time to say, "I don't".I meant it back in '72 when I said, "I do".When I come to the end of my life, I want to be able to say, "I did".
