This was a poem I wrote to accompany a video for a wedding DJ.
Any time anyone asks me to write about love or marriage, it’s simple…
all I have to do is think about Carrie and my relationship with her…
the depth of love and experience we have together,
and I know exactly what to write.

Magical
by Jonathan Kraft

I remember the journey
And everything it took us to get here

You and me
two kids with a dream
two friends,

Now two lovers.
Now two partners.

when we hold hands
when we cry tears of laughter
and when we laugh though our trials,

The joy we have together
fills my heart and overflows.

It’s magical.

Do you know what magic is?
It’s the unexplainable made real
It’s knowing you don’t know…
How something could be so amazing.
How something could be possible.

But any music can be played
Any plant or flower can grow
Any world can be…
Because you are magical.

And though words can not convey this feeling fully,
you should know…

With you, I feel amazing.
With you, anything is possible.
With you, my fantasy has become my reality

And as we move forward
together
For this new phase of our lives

I know that love is the spell
that can change everything

The joy I have
knowing I am yours
and you are mine…

It brings me to a place of deep comfort
a place of strength beyond what I am
a place of truth, and light, and love.
And that place can only be explained as magical.

People often say “til death do us part”
But for you and me, that may not be true.
Even after we’re gone, I’ll still think you’re dead sexy!
