I married myself today

I married myself today

fell in love, at a quarter to three

I needed some vows made

Just to lock in that special moment

in history

Something that i expressed how

important i am

Who's better to do it, if no one else can

I mean surely, i could have waited

maybe put it off

Until the red in my hear was fully shaded

Or, I'd question whether it was the right

or wrong thing to do

Maybe i rushed it, to fix

An ego that was bruised

I married myself today

I'm the only one besides God

Who loves me unconditionally

haven't found the one who defeats

the sun in my ray

who's given me a reason to no longer delay

So o stand up extend my fingers

and spread my wings

and grabbed the velvet box

with my flawless diamond ring in it

How much or how many carats don't matter

It's just a ploy for idle chit chatter

the principle of it all

it that it's important to me

this present was a symbol of my love for me

to live within my boundaries

be wedded and free

to be in love with no reservations

no more worries or tribulations

I married myself today

and with this ring i do wed thee

I wed the excitement i give to me

from the past, present, and future days

my right to be who i was meant to be

I will respect me

Wine and Dine me

Cuddle up and read a good book with

put bubbles in the bath for me

Say how much i love me

I pray for me

grab a hold and hug me

and most importantly look myself

in the eyes and see

how beautiful a bride i am to be

I married myself today

no worries for divorces or tempted strays

I will be dedicated, liberated

and elated by my strength

but my weakness, flaws, and 

things that i were and wasn't meant

I will buy myself a present

every now and then

to show how much i am my own best friend

I will send myself some flowers

and a card within

stating, oh how grateful and blessed i am

To have met my match a solid relationship

with an ebony queen attached

People will walk pass noticing the

glow on my face

Some just envy me 

for my style and grace

and some just wonder what the hell is so great

and i will smile and simply say

It's because i married myself today!
