Wedding Vows

I promise to love you
Love you with a love so strong
No mountain, nor hill, nor forest
Could stand in our way

I promise to cherish you
Cherish you like a man in the desert 
Values every drop of water
Because he knows how precious it is to him

I promise to care for you
Care for you like a mother hen 
Minds her little hens
Who she would die for without a moment's regret

I promise to love you
With a love so strong
I promise to cherish you
Like you were my only hope
I promise to care for you 
For you are my home

But you must remember
None of this is forever

If Love's death comes to pass
Before Death comes between us
We will be forced to go our separate paths
For I'm only here till Love's death do us part
