My Love

We just moved and naturally you go through things. Things get tossed and things get remember. As I was rummaging, I found this beautiful poem Mark wrote me when we were in high school. It really reminds me of how loved I am really am and how loved we really are. God and us have a beautiful love story. I am also blessed to have a love story through Mark too. Love can't be stolen, won't wither, wilt or be lost, it is something deeper and this poem gives truth to that.


"I love you so much. I wanted to show you somehow
I thought and I thought, but I still don't know how
I could by you the perfect rose, but it would wither and wilt, unlike my love for you
I am writing you this poem, but it just won't last
The paper might get torn or forgotten in the past
I bought you a ring, but all my love can't say
That ring might get lost or stolen someday
My love for you can't be stolen, won't wither, wilt or be lost
A gift will not do, I can't show you by cost
There is no way to show all my love, you will just have to know
When I hold you tight, I won't let go."     -Mark Sawyer
