I'm afraid that we will run out of fire for each other, that we don't have enough passion to keep us going. I'm afraid that darkness threatens to engulf our flame. I'm afraid that you'll leave me; I'm afraid that I'll leave you.

I don't know what the future holds. No one does.
I made a wish in a wishing well.

I wished to fall in love, marry him, and find true happiness.
I thought of you when I flipped the coin into the water and saw it splash, submerge and disappear in the darkness.
Love is giving someone the power to destroy you but trusting them that they won't.
I have never felt so blissfully happy in my life.
My days are perfect when I'm with you.
You fill them with endless joy and I
Love you so much for it.
What saddens me deeply are people who have to hide pain.
The happiest of people are the most broken inside, the widest smiles carry the deepest sorrows, the most cheerful laughs disguise the bitterest cries.
It's sad how we automatically judge people we don't know based on appearance. The reality is, we don't know how they're feeling, what they've been through, and we most certainly don't have the right to label them based on what we see.

Please be a kind human.
Everyone is fighting their own battle.
The thought of you makes me feel, think and wonder a thousand things.

1) I wonder what goes through your mind. I wonder if I consume your thoughts like you do mine. I want to know your hopes, dreams, plans. Tell me all of it.

2) I feel warm, like the heat of a blazing fire. I feel it radiating from my soul when I think of your eyes. How strange to describe an emotion as warm. But I'm being truthful.

3) I feel blissful. I feel like I have found a purpose to live and to love. I feel content when I think about your arms and know that it won't be long until they find me again.

4) I see hope. Hope that I can spend the future with you, that we can go on adventures and see the world together with your hand in mine. I hope that we can build memories that we will never forget.

5) Know that you are special. You are not just any other person in my life. You have crossed my path for a reason. You may never know what that reason is. But I know. Trust me, I know.

6) I smile. The thought of you makes me smile. It makes the corners of my lips twitch ever so slightly. Not many people can do this to me. You are very special.

7) You are mine. Not for forever, but for now. And that is enough.
Discovered this poem probably a month after it was written.
Today we decided to tell the world that we're in love
I'm officially yours
and you're mine.
