“Emma, later tonight, when my mind isn’t clouded from nerves, I’m
going to recite to you the entire epic speech I had planned to ask you to be
my wife. It was filled with all the reasons I love you and how you make me
a better man each and every day. I’ve known since the moment you told me
you loved me that I was going to marry you, and I don’t want to wait any
longer to make you my wife. I had all these other romantic things I was going to say with the proposal. It was filled with all the plans I have for us
and how I cannot wait to be your partner in life for the rest of our lives, but
fuck, all the poetic things I had in my mind are gone, so now…”
