"Don't ever say that."
&suddenly, you're awake.
I said I was leaving,
But your touch begged me to stay.
During these few hours that I'm away,
Minutes turn to days, it seems.
The way you pleaded half-asleep this morning made it more real than before.
I never believed that I'd ever find someone like you.
You amaze me every day, baby.
&leaving your side every morning is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.
I wake up in the arms of a man who loves me more than life,
&I've never felt so good.
We are everything; behind my eyelids the colors I see are the most beautiful traces of what makes you & me.
The earth has never ever been so wondrous to me,
As it is now with you here by my side.
I see everything that is good, &wonderful in the world that I like to call your eyes.
In your arms I am safe.
I belong.
We belong together.
After what now feels like ages--a whole 18 years--
I have found you,
Or rather, you found me.
You saw a broken soul & thought it to be beautiful,
You took the pieces of my shattered heart and put it back together.
You've created a masterpiece out of all the fragile parts of me by filling them with the sweetest love & making me the happiest I'll ever be;
Because you, your love, is what was missing in me.
