My Wife Poem by Preston Mwiinga

When we first met, the thought of us together was crazy and impossible. I tried to hide my feelings and did successfully yet painfully. We became closer over time and my feelings only strengthened.
Then one ordinary day turned extrordinary when you confessed you had feelings for me. I told you how I felt and then you kissed me. I knew it was wrong but it felt so... right. Like we were meant to be together. You made me feel like everything was going to be all right.
I couldn't believe that someone as beautiful and wonderful as you would love me back. I still can't. Its been 20 days since that amazing day and I feel exactly the same as I did, love you just as much if not more.
Before you my life was empty, meaningless. I thought it would be like that until the day I died. But after we got together I was happier than I have ever been, you gave my life meaning. You filled the empty spot in my heart. I can't imagine living without you, and I won't.
Today I am the luckiest man alive. I love you more than I can ever tell you or show you, and will love you forever and always.


It has been long in coming to this day. I chose you, ________, to be my wife years ago. For whatever reason, fate has chosen to delay this union several times. But I believe that everything does have a reason. The reason in this case is to show me just how much you truly mean to me.
My life had been incomplete when I met you. It became more so when I did and today completes that journey, making my soul whole for the first time in my life.
I promise to be the best man that I can be for you. You have brought out the very best in me and I promise you that I will not falter in my love for you or my life with you. If my daughter is the light of my life, you are the sky to which I wake every morning. You embody the bright skies and full nights of my life.
It is by this ring and this ceremony that I make you that which you should have been so long ago. I love you and never shall let you go.
