Consumed in Their Love

"Your eyes are a vision and your hair is silky smooth. Your skin sparkles and I dream dreams of you."

"Oh don't you dare," Mila laughed.

"Hey," Tyson argued. "These are my wedding vows and I can do them however I please," He insisted. The crowd giggled a little and the bride faced towards Tyson again, still shaking her head.

"Now may I please finish?" Tyson asked politely. Still half rolling her eyes, Mila said, "Yes you may." And so he began.

“You are my paradise, my one true love. You are the zone of comfort that fits like a glove. I can picture your smile when I close my eyes at night, knowing that you are there to hold me so tight. When I look at you, you are all that I see, and I hope that when you look, all you see is me. Your kindness and generosity is the most important thing, it made me get down on one knee with your ring. Your heart is the thing about you I love most, you’ve never gone around just to brag and to boast. So stay with me now and for forever more, because I can’t wait to see what our future has in store.”

Mila wiped a small tear from her cheek, trying not to let anyone see it.

“Tyson. I didn’t know that you were such a poet,” She laughed.

“Did you like it?” He whispered. She grinned.

“Yes. I loved it!” She exclaimed. Tyson smiled. He was proud, but mostly just happy to be with her.

“I love you, Mila. And no matter where I could be right now, I wouldn’t be elsewhere,” He told her.

“You have always been the brightness that lights me inside, and I couldn’t leave you no matter how hard I tried,” He said.

“Are you still going with this?” She giggled.

“No, just messing with you,” He laughed.

“Now,” The priest started. “It’s Mila’s turn.” Mila stepped closer to Tyson, who’s eyes were glistening into hers.

“Tyson, you have been the love of my life for a really long time. I was never one to rush into a relationship, and we didn’t rush by any means, but I knew from the moment I met you that we would end up at the end of the aisle together.” She took his hand, almost bringing herself to tears.

“Every moment with you…every time I see your eyes in mine or I hear your voice softly and powerfully bringing me back from any painful time; that’s when I love you the most. You are just such a beautiful person in such unimaginable ways. But I see you, Tyson. Every piece of you in the most amazing way. I will always be a part of you even when you aren’t a part of me anymore. My love for you consumes me. So, Tyson, if you’ll have me as your wife, I will never leave you until death do us part.”


“I do.”

“I do.”
