Song: I choose you by Sarah Bareilles

Let the bough break, let it come down crashing
Let the sun fade out to a dark sky
I can't say I'd even notice it was absent
'Cause I could live by the light in your eyes

Unfold before you
Would have strung together
The very first words of a lifelong love letter

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you
I choose you

oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

There was a time when I would have believed them
If they told me, you could not come true
Just love's illusion
But then you found me and everything changed
And I believe in something again

My whole heart will be yours forever
This is a beautiful start to a lifelong love letter

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you (I choose you, I do)
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you (I choose you, I do)
I choose you (I choose you)

We are not perfect
We'll learn from our mistakes
And as long as it takes
I will prove my love to you

I am not scared of the elements
I am under-prepared, but I am willing
And even better
I get to be the other half of you

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you, yeah (I choose you, I do)
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you (I choose you, I do)
I choose you (I choose you, I do)
I choose you (I choose you)

Tears spilled down Sanem's face; she was unable to take her eyes off the sparkling band, made of shards of white moonstone

Tears spilled down Sanem's face; she was unable to take her eyes off the sparkling band, made of shards of white moonstone. As she listened to Can pour out his heart to her, she was overcome with emotion and couldn't say anything. All she could do was nod her head vigorously, her eyes still brimming with tears, while her inner voice cried, "Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" Her heart soared with the thought of spending the rest of her life with the man she loved more than anything in the world.

Once he had slipped the ring onto her finger, they wrapped their arms around each other and kissed passionately. Sanem felt a sense of completeness she had never experienced before. Can was her soulmate, and she knew in that moment that she wanted nothing more than to spend the rest of her life with him.
