My Love, My Life

I look at you and I can’t believe the feelings that bubble up inside of me.  Love, warmth, excitement.  A myriad of sensations and emotions coursing through my veins.

The day that you came into my life was the day that I was blessed.  Before then I had just existed.  Day after day just going through the motions.  Now with you in my life every day is full of new and wonderful experiences.  I live for the moment and I do it with you.

We are so in tune with each other; so close that we know what the other is thinking.  I am you and you are I.  A perfect match.  I don’t know how I ever managed without you.  You give me so much and it is all unconditional.  You support me.  You give me a shoulder to lean on.  You comfort me when I am in distress or grief.  You guide me and protect me.  You stand with me and fight.  You risk your life for me.  You would die for me.

I love you so very much.

[Author’s Note]: This was less a love letter and more a slow-motion spin in a meadow while swearing undying devotion to a man who probably didn’t know how to spell “unconditional.”
Cringe? Oh, absolutely.
But it was real in the moment — and that’s what counts.
