Analysis of To My Wonderful Wife



our love fills me with the essence of life

A magic moment when first on the lips

Informed me fully you must be my wife

I feel stars explode when we trade our sips

Do we have the right to devastate suns

To show our affections sweet on our tongues

the depth of love makes the universe run

Expanding endless because of our lungs

Let us drink freely what cannot be quenched

Abandon our cares at what ever the fares

That existence will pay however drenched

Even if it’s black holes that’s our loves heirs

Perhaps will send all into endless night

Feelings so great are a beautific sight
