Tonight will you hold my hands?
Will you open your heart with love,
In That time honoured tradition of woman and man?
I ask for the stars, but I desire the moon,
So will you bring me the sky?
Tonight can we just understand without words or explanations,
Why we are together.
I’m not asking you for sex or passionate romance,
I am asking for the purest most simple kind of love,
Love that burst from within you, that’ makes you laugh,
And cry in the same breath.
I’m asking for what poets write of,
And for what the critics of the universe have been baffled by for centuries.
Will you hold my hands tonight,
And feel joy for the simple fact they’re my hands?
Can we sit side by side and know that our maker planned this moment just for us?
I’m asking you to withhold nothing from me,
Not you’re deepest fears or your most childish desire.
I am asking you, no begging you,
To push and pull,
To climb and fall,
To grasp and let go all the same time,
I am asking you to love me.
