Poems

The Milestone Line

We've been together for ten years now

Though it's difficult to understand how

Our commitment was tested with time

And we passed the milestone line

This Anniversary is Ours

You and I and ten years

Many smiles, many tears

We have become stars

This anniversary is ours
