The Bargain
by Sir Philip Sidney
My true love hath my heart, and I have his,
By just exchange one for another given:
I hold his dear, and mine he cannot miss,
There never was a better bargain driven:
My true love hath my heart, and I have his.
His heart in me keeps him and me in one,
My heart in him his thoughts and senses guides:
He loves my heart, for once it was his own,
I cherish his because in me it bides:
My true love hath my heart, and I have his.
A poem that we were going to use for the wedding,
but had to choose between two.
Sadly, this one lost.
Was actually a very hard decision,
so I thought I'd place it here because it is beautiful...
