Irene forever

Verse 1

It was the end of May, twenty-twenty,
The world was quiet, but my heart wasn’t empty.
I walked with Ken to that little salon door,
Met your mother working, so I waited some more.
And when you walked in, around seven that night,
Your smile hit my soul like the softest light.
I knew right then, as my heartbeat raced—
I’d found the love I’d been praying to face.

Chorus

Irene Akinyi, you’re the song in my life,
My calm in the storm, my reason, my light.
From the moment we met, my heart chose you,
And every single day, that choice stays true.
Irene Akinyi, you’re my beginning and end—
My wife, my soulmate, my lover, my friend.

Verse 2

I remember your father’s house, that strange little scene,
Ken’s glass on the Bible—how furious he’d been.
He never knew I was right there too,
Hiding my heart that was falling for you.
Then the next day you brought Pilau to my place,
Warm as your spirit, sweet as your face.
You wouldn’t stay, but I knew in my chest—
God had sent me the woman who’d love me best.

Chorus

Irene Akinyi, you’re the song in my life,
My calm in the storm, my reason, my light.
From the moment we met, my heart chose you,
And every single day, that choice stays true.
Irene Akinyi, you’re my beginning and end—
My wife, my soulmate, my lover, my friend.

Verse 3

Now we’re building a home, a future so wide,
Brick after brick with you by my side.
I pray for the children we’ll one day hold,
A story of love more precious than gold.
You’re kind and protective, loving and true,
Playful and patient through all I put you through.
And I thank God daily for giving me you—
My heart, my promise, forever brand-new.
