i believe in the theme of the giving tree
selflessly offering everything you have to your love
without expecting anything from above.
my heart has searched for you since the beginning
and i found you while army was winning.
looking at you, i felt something new.
the roaring in my head seemed to cease
leaving space for the world to say
\"and be happy\".
and be happy is what i am
after spending this year of marriage with you
as much as i am your giving tree
you are mine, too.
i have seen you grow
and it has brought me so much hope.
it is in the ways in which you never lie
and hold me while i cry.
no matter what is in store
i vow to always be waiting by the shore
for your return home to me.
if the roars of the waves are too much
and my head is too loud
i still vow to never cut you down
and sail away as such.
i love you more than yesterday, less than tomorrow.
let me vow to be, always, your giving tree
and be happy.
