If a journey of a thousand miles
begins with the first step,
Then I flew miles
Just to see what this would be.
Who could have guessed that
This life would lead me here,
to you.

But here I am
Absolutely no complaints
Nor stress or anxiety...
instead I am all smiles today,
Trusting that the Universe
brought me here for this reason:

To love you,
To meet your soul where it is,
To meet mine unconditionally.
What better apex can one assume?
That but pure love and anticipation.
I hope you're ready,
Because I fall hard.
And I'm coming for you...

To this wonderfully changing growing life. To new adventures, to new experiences, to new people. I am growing I am changing. I am blooming. I broke out of my cocoon, it's time to stretch my wings, and fly. A beautiful butterfly and I never would have known had I not trusted the uncertainty of life. I believed in something stronger and better than where I was. I chose to leap. To let go to see what happens next. I chose to Live not just exist. I chose to break free and breathe. To see the beauty in that which I did not know. I chose difficulty instead of comfortability. I chose me, instead of someone else. I chose the future and not the past. I chose a new horizon and a wider view of the world and reality. I  choose the present moment. I choose living. I choose new adventures, ones I have never even dreamt of. I choose to let go of my shackles to society. I choose ME instead. And it's the best choice I ever could have made, it might have even saved my life.

I'm sorry that I hurt you
I'm sorry that I hurt too
I'm sorry for the pain I caused
And my lies
And my truth.
I'm sorry that I couldn't marry you
The ring was just too beautiful.
I'm sorry for five years
That you feel I wasted.
I'm sorry I couldn't keep our dog
I sorry I couldn't even tell you that
Her name deserved no place in our emails.
I'm sorry I couldn't give her a home
The truth is,
I left that with you.
I don't have one anymore.
I'm sorry that I lied
And cheated
And stole.
I'm sorry that you don't even think you know who I am.
I'm sorry that we said goodbye
In the least good way possible.
I miss our house and our mornings
And my walks to the river with Heidi.
I miss when the three of us were happy.
Like when she'd lay upside down on the floor when she'd fall asleep
Or the ways she'd shake out her ears every time she'd awake.
I miss the old house
The one with the lake view
And while we are on the subject
I miss our old bulldog too.
I miss the beginning when it wasn't easy
But it wasn't ever tough.
I miss the days that I spent dreaming,
That maybe you were it.
I'm sorry I met someone new,
I'm sorry that I think he actually understands me.
I'm sorry it had to happen this way.
I miss our home
I miss our garden
I miss our coffee in the morning,
I miss you.
But truthfully,
I think I miss our dog the most of all.

I fell
    I tumbled
       Head over heels
          Down a steep hill
Not looking back
      But instead enjoying
           The dizzying ride...
As I just
Smiled
And looked to the
Sky.
I said "thank you thank you thank you"
Over and over again
To the stars

Trust in that which we don't know
Patience is the heart's greatest tool
Expectations lead us to pain
Acceptance is the only way through

We do not know what lies
              ...ahead.
I promise to make things different
This time around.
I come in to you with an open mind
                                            And soul.
Let's be different
Let's grow
... Together.
And alone.

What was it that you felt
That made me fall for you

The universe dreamed us into being
though we were given not a clue

Life was brought into loving
From that first moment, I knew

Excited for the next chapters
Not arriving,
I could never do.

Together we fit.

It's not everyday you find someone
Who reciprocates your love
...this quickly.

It happened so fast
I pay no mind to the speed.

Who cares what they will say.

I fell for you instantly.
There's no right way
... nor timing.

It's better than I expected
No titles will be neccisarry
...for I am yours now.
And you,
Mine.
