Happy First Anniversary

You Make Me Shine

My life had seen heartache,

and felt its share of pain;

Just as the sun would shine,

clouds brought in the rain.

My heart had been torn apart,

Left to die or mend;

My pride had been trampled,

unable to defend.

At times I was so lonely

I could not see the light

Wanting someone special

to hold into the night

But tears washed onshore

Were soon carried away

When you changed the tide

On our wedding day

Just as the sun needs to shine

My heart glistens with you

Fulfilling my hopes and dreams

The moment you said I do…

Happy First Anniversary

Love Always Stephen
