The Protagonist
"I thee wed," he said and clasped her ring
"Till death do us part," she held the knot
For the briefest moment, all feels right with the world
"For better or worse," we approve through our stance
For the briefest moment, Heaven has come to earth
I haven't seen her smile this tenderly
Since she found me wandering, despondent
When she embraced and brought me into our tribe
We laud this love, toasting cups with affection
In a dingy world devaluing human dignity
I may not be the best man, but today I'm yours
