-
When we first met, I thought of myself as a wallflower.
I didn’t think people noticed me, but you did.
You saw something in me that no one else did.
I found this confidence in you that I wish I had in myself.
As our friendship grew, so did my feelings for you.
You had this alluring aura that always drew me back in.
It hurt me that I couldn’t be your special someone.
But then you surprised me by wanting to be mine.
When I knew I was in love with you, nothing else mattered.
I fell asleep missing your compelling voice,
and woke up thankful to have you in my life.
I treated every day with you as if it was my last, not wasting a second.
Being with you makes me realize how fortunate I am.
You have always been here for me,
giving me the strength to continue, even when I didn’t want to.
Because of you, I feel like a stronger, better person.
When I hear your name, an unexplainable feeling comes over me.
Your gentle, warm touch makes my heart ache.
Sometimes I even think your love can give me wings,
allowing me to fly into a sky of complete harmony.
I want you to know what lies behind these mysterious eyes.
I want you to know how much you mean to me.
My heart is something fragile and unusual,
And I have given it to you.
When we are apart,
I hope you are safe.
When we are together, hands intertwined,
My smile never seems to fade.
My feelings for you are real.
No one can take your place.
I could tell you I love you,
but these are words you know already.
What I know is that we are meant for each other,
in our past life, present, and next.
Forever you will have me.
The real me.
