hayley & sean

the two best friends who fell in love

married for time and all eternity

in the mt. timpanogos utah temple

on february 17, 2012

for you, baby.

i will stay with you through the ups and the downs.

i will stay with you when no one else is around.

and when the dark clouds arrive, i will stay by your side.

i know we'll be alright.

i will stay with you.

though relationship can get old

and have the tendency to grow cold,

we have something like a miracle

and i'll stay with you.

and there will be heartaches and pains,

but through it all, we will remain.

and in the end i know that we'll find love so beautiful and divine.

we'll be lovers for a lifetime, and i'll stay with you.

everything will be fine, and i will stay with you.

through the end of time, i will stay with you.

special thanks to ruby's godparents, mary and jonny, for keeping her happy and healthy in idaho for a little while. we are missing her like crazy.

sonnet

Found

The place from where you came my mind can’t see.
And even life’s great mysteries have sense
But sense is lost to think that you found me.
My name has ne’er been breathed in sweet suspense
As softly from the place where your lips part.
The sun is brighter now than ere before.
The bluest sky compares not to my heart
So vibrant and so free. At last, these doors
That keep my heart closed off to hurt and pain
Have shook as if some supernatural force
Knows better still the happiness to gain
From being loved and feeling no remorse.
If there’s a place for you and me, my dear,
Let us reside therein and never fear.

i adore
that hand on my leg
during a twelve hour drive
that belongs to the sleeping man in the passenger seat next to me
just to remind that he's still there.
