I cannot promise you a life of sunshine,

I cannot promise you
a life of sunshine,
I cannot promise riches,
wealth, or gold,
I cannot promise you
an easy pathway
That leads away from change
or growing old,
But …..

I can promise
all my heart?s devotion,
A smile to chase away
your tears of sorrow,
A love that?s ever true
and ever growing,
A hand to hold in yours
through each tomorrow,
Two loving arms to shelter
and protect you,
The knowledge that I need you
more than ever,
And all the happiness
that love can give you
As, hand in hand,
we walk through life together..!!
