Yes ______, I would marry you again.
With tiny tears that glistened, my eyes were fixed on you, and thinking of the life we’d share we softly said “I do”.
Our hearts were knit together from the time that we first met, and memories were gathered that we never will forget.
While daily living life with you, you saw the real me, and still you chose acceptance, a loving mystery.
With many happy times gone by and others when we cried, some days we’d share so endlessly, while other days we’d hide.
With all the ups and downs we’ve had in learning to be friends, I know that in this heart of mine,
I’D MARRY YOU AGAIN.

Your Loving husband ______.
