We Two  Today To you I give my heart ….. To My Bride

Love Loving You I Promise

We Two  ~ Kuan Tao-Sheng ~ (13th Century) You and I Have so much love, That it burns like a fire, In which we bake a lump of clay Molded into a figure of you And a figure of me. Then we take both of them, And mix the pieces of water, And mold again a figure of you, And a figure of me. I am in your clay. You are in my clay. In life we share a single quilt. In death we will share one coffin.	Today ~ Unknown ~ Today I marry my friend, the one I laugh and cry with, the one I have learned from and shared with. This one I have chosen to support, encourage and give myself to, through all the days given us to share. Today I marry the one I love.
To you I give my heart ….. ~ Ruth Van Gramberg ~ I stand beside you strong and sure my dearest, dearest friend, And as we make our sacred vows My thoughts of you transcend. I give you my heart, my hopes, my dreams Accept these gifts of mine They are so precious and fragile They need your care divine. Treat my trust with gentleness Treat me with loving care I can but grow with patience and love As long as you are there.	To My Bride ~ Steven Reiser ~ To my bride, I give you my heart Sharing love each day, from the very start To my bride, I give you my kiss Filling each day with joy and bliss To my bride, I give you my being To love, to play, to work and to sing To my bride, I give you my mind Learning each day to be more kind To my bride, I give you my soul Growing together to be more whole To my bride, I give you my life Rejoicing each day that you are my wife.
Love ~ Roy Croft ~ I love you, Not only for what you are, But for what I am When I am with you. I love you, Not only for what You have made of yourself, But for what You are making of me. I love you For the part of me That you bring out; I love you For putting your hand Into my heaped-up heart And passing over All the foolish, weak things That you can't help Dimly seeing there, And for drawing out Into the light All the beautiful belongings That no one else had looked Quite far enough to find.	I love you because you Are helping me to make Of the lumber of my life Not a tavern But a temple; Out of the works Of my every day Not a reproach But a song. I love you Because you have done More than any creed Could have done To make me good, And more than any fate To make me happy. You have done it Without a touch, Without a word, Without a sign. You have done it By being yourself. Perhaps that is what Being a friend means, After all.
Loving You ~ Larry S. Chengges ~   Your love is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It has given my life new priorities and meaning and filled it with joy. Thank you for giving so much of yourself, And for helping me to discover so much about myself too. Sometimes I think you know me better than I know myself. When we are together, Love feels so right with you, And I miss you so much when we are apart I'll always be there for you, And together I know, We can make our dreams come true.	I Promise  ~ Dorothy R. Colgan I promise to give you the best of myself and to ask of you no more than you can give. I promise to respect you as your own person and to realise that your interests, desires and needs are no less important than my own. I promise to share with you my time and my attention and to bring joy, strength and imagination to our relationship. I promise to keep myself open to you, to let you see through the window of my world into my innermost fears and feelings, secrets and dreams. I promise to grow along with you, to be willing to face changes in order to keep our relationship alive and exciting. I promise to love you in good times and in bad, with all I have to give and all I feel inside in the only way I know how. Completely and forever.
