Sharing a Promise With My Best Friend

Nicholas, my sincere and loving friend, 
          for he redeemed my soul with who he is-
a marriage and true friendship that shan’t end,
         and everything that is mine, also his.

          Free to be me as we relax at night,                  
my faithful companion holding my hand-        
          enraptured in pure evanescent light,               
he rescued me; on my feet I did land.

Our relationship ineffable, pure-
          an ethereal essence shared with ease;
for he is the one who makes me secure, 
          crimson Autumn vows sworn with guarantees. 

Romance and devotion with my best friend-
          for we share a rare promise that shan’t end.
