Laura’s Wedding Poem
3rd June 2017
Lifesaving
Do you know you saved my life?
You saved my life.
By degrees and piece by piece,
you stilled the faltering part of me,
joined us in perfect symmetry,
to fit together perfectly.
Do you know by doing that
you saved my life?
Do you know you saved my life?
You saved my life.
You gave me hope and air to breathe,
deep within me there were stars,
you gave them light and kissed each one,
pinned them on my beating heart.
Life buoys on my drifting raft,
towing all the good in me,
Did you know when you did that,
you saved my life?
Such sweetness
resurrecting me
constellations, planets, galaxies,
holding me
all satellites marked and named,
surrounding and reminding me
You saved my life
