10 years, 17 days, 5 hours, 29 minutes and 48 seconds.
But who's counting?
I mean isn't that a super cheesy thing to do?
To count how long it's been since I realized
That I was over heads and heels
In love with you.
I guess I'm a cheeseball. shrug

38.2 times an hour.
Sure it's just a guesstimate,  
But I don't think I could actually count
The number of times I think of you.
So I should really just say "infinity".

7 out of 10 "Thank you's"
I say a day is to you and for you.
To you: you saved my life that day.
To you: you save my life every day.
For you: you are so...AMAZING.
For you: you're the best man I know.

26 years of struggling with the human life.
20 years of a broken, beaten body and soul.
But...
6 hours of willing suffering.
3 days of death.
Then...
1 "yes."

To the Man who knows my heart
Better even than i do myself,
To the Man who loves to bind my wounds
When i can't bear to look at them,
To the Man who makes me laugh
When i least expect to even smile,
To the Man whose broad shoulders
Have been the hanky for my many tears,
To the Man who loved me
Before i ever knew He existed,
To Him I say,
Yes.
