• When you said, "I love you,"
    I went over the moon.
    My heart sang its glory,
    The stars sang in tune.
    As when with a word
    God brought forth light,
    So with these words
    You ended my night.

    So with these words
    You made something new:
    A bond of devotion
    Between me and you.

    How powerful words
    To shape who we are!
    We ponder in silence;
    Our words cross a bar.

    Your words crossed a threshold
    And entered the past,
    Yet they have created
    A world that will last.
