A Late Autumn Wedding

Because time is precious
I want your hand in mine
Everything before was preface
Grapes on the vine

Somewhere between Modist and Surly
We’ll pour our glasses tall
Even if the seasons come early
Heavy snow in the Fall

Because even if I change 
everything about the way I look
The way you see me
Is how I wish the world could
Before you came I didn’t know
If someone ever would

Your infinite patience
Your steadfast resolve
We dance to the same cadence
While this fragile world revolves

With Juniper and gin
You save me from the tailspin
This clever world has put me in
Take me to our hygge home
We can renovate on our own

Because there’s no waiting for God above
Because there’s no such thing as perfect love
We create new form
We keep ourselves warm
We write a new chapter
Sew the seeds with laughter

Whatever the world throws our way
We will face it side by side
A globe cloaked in fight and fright
These things our love does not ignore
No we give and take in a common bank
For whatever today does call
So it’s time for our wedding, after all
