than I have ever loved. You have my heart, you see, and it skips a beat at the
thought of belonging to you. I would twirl you gently and watch that beautiful grin
of yours widen and your eyes fall softly to the floor as you came back to me.
I would never let you go, because surely then I would have fallen into your soul.

a world of hope and laughter and tears and pain
at times a gentle breeze in a hurricane
a world full of doubt but love works it out
young emotions

I have never let on you know, about your way and how deeply you move me.
I close my eyes to see you and my head spins and clocks in the room stop ticking.
You stop the clock, sweet darlin', and make my sun dance forever. So loved.

I've never told you that I would be tender as tender can be—
my lips caressing yours—then on the corner of your mouth to kiss you there slowly.
Twirl and sway beautiful girl. Let me pick you up and carry you off to a life together.

we'll face each new tomorrow, dear, undismayed
for our love will keep us together
and our love will help us to weather
these young emotions

You are my ecstasy.

Very Well Written

Ahhh, my darlin,

What is love? Sometimes I wonder if it could be possible to love each other any more than we already do, and then I see you shoulder the burdens and go off once more to spend your time at a job that pays the bills, and I wonder how I could possibly ever love you enough to make up for that.

It's the economy, I know it's the economy which has made your job so difficult, made finding a comparable job so difficult. I think there must be people all over Wichita staying in their jobs as you stay in yours, waiting for the economy to get better... and unless they move on first, where would there be for you to move on to?

It's already dragged on so long, years already as things inch along, and yet still you persevere, giving your time and energy to a place which doesn't deserve you so that you can take care of us. Thank you. I know it isn't easy. I'm holding on to hope that it can get better, that this stuck economy can come back to life a little faster than it has been, that other things can fill the gap.

I listen to you talking to the dog as you walk him, and I wonder how I ever deserved someone so wonderful. He's driving me to the edge of distraction with those temper tantrums; even when I try to stay on an even keel, I'm frazzled by the time you get home. Yet no matter how difficult your day was, no matter annoyed you get at him, you still treat him gently, speak to him as if he were an angel. I cherish that about you. I wish I were able to keep the annoyance out of my voice as well as you do.

I used to be so unrealistic. My younger self, so sentimentally romantic, thought love was all about grand gestures and sweeping someone off her feet. What did I know? I read romance novels and thought they had to be right, since it was clear I wasn't seeing "Love" in any of the marriages around me. But I was wrong. Romantic gestures are only the surface of love; they aren't what sustains a marriage through the long haul.

Real love, deep love, is what sends a person out into the world day after day to do a job that means little to him, so that his family can be sheltered and fed. Real love, deep love, is what you give me.

I can only try to be worthy of it, and to return it.

I remain, as always,
Yours

Hello My Darlin' One,

Again today I thought of you and my heart burned for you. The roads I have chosen have been so long without you. Even at my best I knew that you were out there and I ached to be better so I could find you faster. I looked and there were those who did thier damage. Who used me the way I know others used you. Who abused me and took my kindness for weakness the way your kindness was turned against you. The abuse that befell you I can only imagine until I hear your sweet voice tell me of your trials. When living hard caught up to me and took away the use of my legs and ability to work, my mind and soul screamed for you. I pushed to rebuild myself and even at my best I became half man half machine. Still I waited. Knowing... BELIVING that you my sweet darlin' are out there and that you felt my hurt and pain. That somewhere in the night you heard my cries for you and you sat up knowing it was me calling out to you. Letting you know I'm here and I haven't forgotten nor have I stopped fighting. My heart scarred and numb from a life that I didn't want nor ask for and I as I planned to leave my home to find you a terrible poison entered my body and turned my plans again on end. I slept for a month. Fighting poison and fever to see you in both dreams an delusions as my tormented screams echoed the hallways. When I woke confused and alone I prayed. I prayed to God to give me the strenth to fight this battle He had placed on me. I begged for the reasons. I cursed and fought and hated those Doctors and nurses.Then at night I prayed for them, I prayed for streanth, I prayed for you. I knew God must have a plan He must have some faith in me and needed me to see and understand that my life was not lost. He would put no more on me than I could handle and I had to find my true self so that I could find you. That only you would recongnise the bass in my voice and the scruffy beard on my face. That you would look into my road weary eyes and not only see who I became but who I had been. And that underneathe my armor to the world you would see the man who had fought so long to find you and you would love every part of me. I swear my Darlin' I am comming for you. I am sorry the wait has been so very long. I'm sorry for the pain I know you have suffered. When I finally am before you please forgive me for making you wait. I will take you in my arms and show you the love you have waited all your life for. I will carry you to that place of love we have ached and long for for a lifetime. I will spend the rest of my days spoiling you with my love and reveling in the beauty that is you and your love. Call me your Knight...call me your Prince. I don't care the title as long as I'm YOURS. All my love my Darlin'. Until I hold you in my arms I remain now and forever yours.....
