Before I knew it I loved you with all my heart, poured my entire soul into you from the very start. Never have I fallen so... I was scared at first the direction I was going I couldn't tell, I did not know. I was scared to go forward terrified to go back. The wisdom and courage my heart needed, it most certainly lacked. I turned and looked for a place to hide, even though I couldn't get you off my mind. Should I give love a chance? The question swirled through my head.. would it be a heart break or romance? I saw something move out of the corner of my eye, I had realized it was not just my shadow by my side. You take a step forward with your heart in your hands. You promised me you were different, but so did the rest. Then you looked into my eyes and I knew you passed the test. It was a permanent exchange of hearts between yours and mine. I remember feeling it then pushing it away as if I was it were a hallucination, simply a fragment of my hearts imagination. I took a chance and fell deeply in love. I think you are what I've been looking for. What was needed was time and a gentle shove. I'm not afraid anymore, for I know I am your baby girl and you are my man. Even though it's something new and I'm a little confused, I will not run. I know if I were to fall, in your arms I would land. There's a special love that grows between you and me. A special bond only we can feel, but the world can see. Everything is happening so fast but something keeps telling me I have found a true love of the purest form, one that will last!
This was a poem I had written for my husband before we got married when I was 19. :-)
