The Day I Marry My Best Friend

I walk the silent aisle slow and look at faces turned towards me as if they see the love that grows inside my heart eternally The raging glow that never dies the embers waiting to ignite as slowly I turn around to see your lovely figure glide towards me

A day we thought would never come Preparations without end Every moment leads us to the day I marry my best friend

Even now I still recall the moment I first saw your face The smile which caused my heart to stall as if only you were in that place The smile is still a melting one and I see that smile inside your eyes It warms me as the summer sun It carries me to paradise

I even look through times of pain much differently than times before A gray and cloudy time of rain a heart defeated, tired and sore But God knew what would soon occur and what I needed as a man to love you as He loves us both to give a future and a plan

A day we thought would never come Preparations without end Every moment leads us to The day I marry my best friend

Someday on our porch swing on a cool October day We will sit hand in hand and watch the little children play Then we can both look back in joy at years of trust and years of love A scrapbook full of memories A life that’s blessed by God above

These are the thoughts that fill my mind and prompt my heart to pray while I watch you glide towards me On my best friends wedding day
