The fire inside my heart, burned
You took away my pain
A gentle punch, tender touch
Kissed me in the rain
I waited for you, my reason to live
Took me to a faraway land
Where love is true, the sky is blue
Where my heart was held by your hand
The adventures we shared, so long ago
I relived everyday
As we ran around, jumping about
That is where I wanted to stay
The play-fights that we would have
Rolling around in the park
Playful glares, longing stares
Pierced into my heart
From that day on, I knew we were wrong
About our relationship before
Your coy grin, eyes' glint
I knew we had something more
You denied the way you felt about me
For many years after that
You'd look away, not wanting to say
That onto me you were latched
Not sure how you kept up that game
For such a long period of time
Your heart would burn, mind would curse
That you couldn't yet be mine
After many years of amazing friendship
The question again popped up
You finally came out,  without a doubt
For me to love you back was just pure luck
Writing this poem, 4 years down the line
About to get married, bells chime
Behind this sheet, the girl of my dreams
I smile to myself. It's time
