HER PROMISE

When I met you I didn't think I could smile so much in a day. When you held me I didn't think I could feel so at home in another's arms. And when you said how you felt about me I couldn't think at all.

I thought about how to say this. How get my point across. But there is so much I don't know where to begin. So I'll just say it all.

When I'm with you nothing else matters. The drama out there in the world? Gone. The stress from my job? Gone. The bills that have to be paid? Vacant from my thoughts. The absolute fact that even just the thought of you makes my day brighter is an understatement. You warm my days and comfort me through my nights. It amazes me still how much I feel for you. I used to think I was out of my mind and was not thinking clearly but I was. I am. I know exactly what I feel. I feel that you are my best friend. You are the person I know when I come to you you wont judge me or try and make your thoughts my own. You respect my opinion and in return I respect yours. You are the person I would fight for. Stand up to anyone and anything that would or could harm you.

I, on this day, promise to never belittle you. To never deter you from your dreams. To support your decisions. OUR decisions. Today I promise to continue to be your best friend. The one that has your back no matter what. I promise to be your lover the one that will hold you every night. And ever if we have a disagreement we will not go to sleep angry. We will not allow others outside our bond to break it.

Usually to say these words it would have taken a death threat but when the subject is you my words flow freely. They have no end. And even though I could say the usual words that everyone has heard I decided that my words, the words that I are my thoughts of you are better than any others. I hope that you understand how much I care for you. How much you mean to me. That no matter what happens I will be here for you.

Forever and always.
