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. :-)
