All my life I've searched hoped prayed for the kind of connection I saw in Disney movies I grew up with in the books I clung to so desperately to escape reality in the eyes of my grandparents when they spoke to one another...
I fell into the trap of my past with abusive lovers of all kinds giving my heart to those who threw it aside to shatter into shards like a thousand sparkling rubies without a second thought
You came into my life as a cloud passing across the sky adding something new to my horizon without me knowing just how much you would grow to influence my life
Over time we grew to be thick as thieves you became my closest and dearest friend I didn't know that whole time you were falling in love with me patiently waiting for me to see what you already knew
Three years you waited battling your problems as well as mine staying by my side through the worst of storms ever waiting until my past finally cleared and recognition occurred.
My heart and soul recognized yours in the way I'd always been told would happen: I just knew. I finally opened myself up to the purest, deepest emotion I'd ever felt and let you in.
Deep in my bones I know I will spend my life with you laughing, playing, adventuring, growing carving our friendship, our love, into the fabric of this world and creating a path together through sun and storm.
I will love you with every fiber of my being in this life and the next
I've given my heart away for the last time to my best friend to my dashing rogue to my lifemate.
