From where I was,
my eyes half shut
he came up to me –
filling me with words.
In that instant,
I couldn’t take them all in.
My mind was half-way through lala-land,
other half is still a little awake.
After delivering all those lines –
he asked me to sit up,
my heart could not contain it,
I knew that something huge is about to happen.
He was on his knees,
and on his left hand
is a little blue box –
and in it is a promise ring.
My heart jumped –
for a moment,
I was speechless.
Tears started to well up my eyes.
His hands were cold
as he held my left my hand.
aiming for my ring finger –
He asked me.
“Will you marry me, Beb?”
I was afloat –
overwhelmed by
this euphoria.
He asked the same question again –
“Will you marry me, Beb?”
And again –
“Will you marry me, Beb?”
In an instant,
I was in the now.
I wrapped my arms around him
and then I give him my yes.
His face lit up
showing off his dimples
staring back at him -
my heart tells me, he is a happy man.
With a new promise ring
on my left ring finger -
I could not help but look forward to
seeing my Hon wait for me when I walk in my ivory dress.
