Evenstar // Xavi

2011

I remember that day,

You and me at the breakfast table

The sun had barely started its ascend

Though any dawn of silk

Could never outshine you

Deep in the strangest feeling, unrelentless,

We made a promise, we took a pledge

Though driven to insignificance

Or cut with life's jagged edge,

We vowed for this world

To never blind us

I told her:

"You know, reality fumbles for a reason

There isn't a thought in jitters,

It's a flawed pattern that keeps the season

And Love, the word quivers"

The glimmer of confusion

Crossed her eyes as she looked at me

But quickly hit with perception

When I got down on one knee

"Past the laughter and the dreams

Underneath all that we could feel

Futures are made of smithereens

And some two fates are made to seal

Estella, I will love you every day

For as long as I shall live

Once together, never parted

I'll give you all I have to give

I promise you forever

And a future oh so bright

And I'm sure no one on this earth

Will look better in white

So today is just the start

You are timeless to me

And until death do us part

Say you will marry me"

That's when deep within the ground

A moment came to life

Without a sound

Without a strife

She told me:

"You say you love me every moment

You promised always to be true

You say you need me now and always

And God knows how much I need you

So darling, make me yours forever

I'll surrender happily

Hold me close till we grow old

And darling never set me free

A love like ours

Can never fall through

And before friends and family

I will marry you."
