To think there ever was a time where

You weren’t mine

My heart skips a beat and I can’t

Let go of the idea that forever

NEVER started from the moment

Our hearts started to beat ….

From the womb , I wanted to hold you

I wanted to feel your heart beat

As mine grew ,

One beat after yours ….

I’d chase you till your last breathe …

And still years later

You pat the couch we lay on

Time and time again …

And my stomach fills with more than butterflies

I crave your arms around me more than you ever could guess

Doubt my love but never doubt my desire…

It fills with all of our memories

It fills with every first, last, and infinite gasp

And it’s always like IT just happened yesterday

But it’s been 11 years …
