TOO YOUNG
They were too young
Yet they pledged their love unconditional,
Through the good and the bad
The happy and the sad
Everyone thought they were delusional,
Because they were too
young.
The years went by – two, four, and more
And their love remained steadfast,
Through the good and the bad
The happy and the sad
Some thought they just might last,
As the years passed by
more and more.
Life was filled with twists and turns
But their commitment was strong,
Through the good and the bad
The happy and the sad
They proved the doubters wrong,
When they overcame
life’s twists and turns.
They were too young twenty-five years ago
When they vowed to love forever,
Through the good and the bad
The happy and the sad
Now they celebrate this milestone together,
Despite being too young
twenty-five years ago.
