[$$RICH$$]

ON THIS DAY !
upon u i hold & charish da love that will never parish
the love given to thee as my heart is of love
silently coming from high above .

To respect and be respected
on this day
I stand on my own beside u my Queen
to become my bride at GOD's almighty throne
in both the prescence of family & friendz
I pledge my loveth for a never end

On this day i vow unto thee
my heart my soul my love to be
giveth me ya hand here as u stand
and know i'm ya man
knoweth that i understand

I vow and declare u my wife
forever in life til da death do us in

i vow my love for yours to keep
as i hold ya heart for it's mines as i weep

in our journey of destiny which we desire
together in vow we step a bit higher
u r my sunshine of my life
forever i'll hold ya , babe be my wife
u indeed is a rare jewel , wit a glow
of many diamonds mixed wit black pearls
of essence
I vow upon u dis day
sing da song of love i bring
ask thee to ware my ring
wit much pride
get ready for dis love ride i caress inside
ware my name in love from above
forever hold me tyght as a glove
have no shame nor seek blame
allow self to only claim
I vow to giveth u comfort with sweet caresses
protect u and honor u fulfill yo quest
of happiness
watch ova u as u rest and every night within
da day i shell always embrace and kiss ya
tenderness feed u my kindness
i vow to u my open arms
fight off all ya harms
on dis day i seek no more
in dis life sweetie please be my wife

Its funny that you should talk about wedding vows. last night I had a dream that I was getting married. BUt it wasn't a good dream. I was so unpeaceful in the dream. I dreamt that I was running around in my wedding gown planning last minute arrangements and what's funny, nobody knew where the wedding was, not even my own sister! I felt like I was doing something wrong...like I was working against natural forces. and then I only went to do my make-up when I heard that my groom had arrived.[i must have been in the back room of the chapel or something] I woke up shortly after that. I felt very disturbed after that. I was getting married but I wasn't happy. My mind was distracted and I was nervous. It was terrible. Thank God I was only dreaming because not only was it going to be a disastrous wedding, but my wedding dress was so, so, ugly it was enough to depress any bride for the rest of the day.....ha ha ha!!

lo'
