| When I first came to you I had nothing at all. I was so lost within myself that I thought I would never find my way out again. We became friends. The first true friend I had known in a long time. Eventually I realized I loved you, at a time when I was running from love and God. You turned me around again. I hid for a while, afraid of what it might mean and not wanting to raise my hopes, but I saw something in you that I have never seen before, and so I took the biggest chance I've ever taken in my life. I offered you my heart. I didn't realize fully what I was doing at the time, and I was very afraid and confused. You became more to me then, than just a friend. You became a lover and a companion, and I will be forever grateful. I have begun to realize, that what I knew about you then, was but the tip of the iceberg, hiding the mountain of gold underneath. I love you so much. I say that a lot, but it grows daily. I once thought that I would end up growing old alone, but now a day without you is like a year. Even though I say it so much, I don't say it enough, or at least the words themselves do not convey enough, my love for you. I look forward to growing old with you. To laughing and crying together. To wiping away your tears and comforting you with my body when you are sad. To watching movies together. To cooking and eating together. To asking you about your day, or telling you about mine. To snuggling together on a couch in front of a warm fireplace while the rain falls outside. To being there for you when you wake up from a nightmare. To having a family with you. To saying I love you and meaning it, everyday while I draw breath. Click here to hide this message |
