Firm foundations, strong stone walls

[pomes]

You're not The One decreed by fate,
Our love was not ordained,
But you're the one I chose back then,
And the one I choose today.

You're not Cupid's target struck,
Nor prophecy foretold,
But I chose you when we were young,
And I'll choose you when we're old.

It is not random chance, our love,
But a choice that we both make,
And the work we've done together
Has built love which cannot break.

Aww, that's just lovely! But I am particularly soppy at the moment :)

I think it's a bit nauseating, but nonetheless true for a' that. Perhaps I'll make cards out of it.

I'm glad it's true.
