Scott told me he writes poetry very early on. I'd say within our 2nd or 3rd date. I really didn't know what to think at first. I'd never met a man who wrote poetry. It was never on my "things I like in a guy" list and frankly I never thought it was my thing-to like a guy who writes poetry. Pshaw!
That was until he wrote this line.... for ME!
"our hearts held by ethereal strings hearts held by ghosts of beautiful things"
Ladies, you may think a man who writes poetry is not for you, but I challenge you not to break out in tears when the man you love professes his love for YOU through a poem. He wrote countless poems for me in our early years. Now, it's tapered off a bit but when I get one, I savor every word. Which is why we insisted on writing our own vows.
This is the last little part of his vows to me.
"Most of all I vow to walk with you through the fire that will temper and strengthen our love, and embrace you throughout our lives with tenderness, stillness and respect."
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm swimming back in that cocktail of love drug

Hate to break it to you Katy but that first one is a line from a TOOL song.
(I'm just joking. But that would be funny, right?)
