always
always and forever she whispered
always and forever he replied
as he leaned over to lay a tender kiss on her brow
the steady hum of the machine that had filled the room
slowly faded away, till only silence remained
he looked down at the hand clasped in his
a tear fell slowly down his cheek
always and forever
they had vowed
and though she no longer
would be in the here and now
he knew that in his heart
their love would live on
always and forever
for love like theirs was blessing from above
from their very first day
they had known
there would be no other
their sacred bond of love transcended all
knowledge known to man, it was a prayer answered
from above, and would live on
always and forever
