I reach out my hand to you
in a promise
in a hope

and you take it
you smile as you ascend the stairs
as you stop beside me
you, dressed in black
me, your emissary in white,
your guide to a future
we will build together

I reach out my hand to you
and you take it
and you let me guide you
to the curve of my belly
to cradle the life there
we will spend our whole lives loving
loving well.
