My life's sweet delight, my dear Joyce,
In this journey, you were sugar, and I, spice,
Now two decades strong, its our anniversary,
To pen my heartfelt words were necessary….
Lovely times together that I will never forget,
Being with you is something that I will never regret,
No other soul could ever replace,
Your special spot, your unique grace…
You aimed to turn a boy into a man,
I stayed a boy, yet you always stayed a loyal woman,
Have met a lot of passing clouds,
None like you, whose warmth I hold…
Unspoken, my love for you and emotions,
I believe not in words but actions,
"Love your wife immensely," to my younger self the advice I give,
“For she enters your life, changing how you live” .
In those early years, I failed to see your worth,
A life you unfolded, else would’ve remained alike since birth,
Even when kin's and friends turned away,
Beside me, steadfast, you chose to stay…
In a world that judged, you embraced my flaws,
No reasons, no cause, just love without pause.
May we continue, hand in hand, strong and free,
Living out our love, a melody of eternity, will you agree…
Leaving your family to stay by my side,
You'll dwell in heart, my eternal guide,
Prayers uttered for a life that's long,
To compose our story into a timeless song…
