LINNEA & JOSH 6.16.2013
Josh’s vows to Linnea So the first draft of my vows, which I wrote the day after we got engaged, clocked in at around 70 pages, but I rewrote them and kept it short. I would start out by saying, I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart. Even if the sky is falling down, I know that we’ll be safe and sound. You’ve seen me at my best and you’ve seen me at my worst but you saw no fault no cracks in my heart. We’ll live a long life, because you give me hope in the darkness. Where you invest your love, you invest your life. You’re all I need. I love you and I like you. Linnea’s vows to Josh It’s so amazing when someone comes to your life and you expect nothing out of it, but suddenly right there in front of you is everything you ever need. For a long time I felt as if I were incomplete or missing a part of myself and then my soul saw you and it kind of went, “Oh there you are. I’ve been looking for you.” You are my everything, Joshy. I vow to fiercely love you more and more each and every day. I love you and I like you.
T U R N I N G PA G E I’ve waited a hundred years But I’d wait a million more for you Nothing prepared me for What the privilege of being yours would do If I had only felt the warmth within your touch If I had only seen how you smile when you blush Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough Well I would have known What I was living for all along What I’ve been living for Your love is my turning page Where only the sweetest words remain Every kiss is a cursive line Every touch is a redefining phrase I surrender who I’ve been for who you are For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart If I had only felt how it feels to be yours Well I would have known What I’ve been living for all along What I’ve been living for Though we’re tethered to the story we must tell When I saw you, well I knew we’d tell it well With a whisper we will tame the vicious seas Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees
“Where you invest your love, you invest your life.”
