"becoming an old favorite. It was a Saturday night and I was already happy. I was going to spend some quality time with someone who was very dear to my heart. We enjoyed quite a show and many laughs. I remember laughing so hard that night, that my face hurt by the end. Well, we left completely satisfied and I was on cloud nine. What I was hoping was that she knew exactly how much I appreciated what she had done for me. She had had to go through a tough struggle just for us to be together. I only hoped she knew just how much I appreciated that. Well, at any rate, as we left the performance art theater to head back to the car, we enjoyed a light conversation. We decended the stairs to the waiting street below and somehow, she ended up partially in my arms. Quite a shock to both of us, you bet! Well, as we regained ourselves, we locked hands, fingers interlaced. I was in Heaven. I wondered to myself if she could notice the grin I held on my face, for it stretched from ear to ear I am sure. Well, the ride home was equally pleasing, for I guided us through the streets onto the freeway where I proceeded to ask her for her hand. She gave it, willingly, and I took it warmingly. I raised her hand to my lips and kissed it gently. I thanked her for joining me that evening and smiled deeply. I know she appreciated that, because I saw it in her eyes. Well, that would bring me to the point of this conversation I suppose. The letter was from her, yes it was, but my reaction to it was both unexpected by myself and at the same time, refreshing. You see, instantly, I fell head-over-heels in love with her. Sure, I had had feelings for her up to this point, but they had never seen this much energy. I loved her before this night, and I knew I would always, however...something about that night just clicked. It was like the machine powered by passion that dwelled inside my heart finally got the kick-start it had been waiting for since...well, let's just say for a little while. At any rate, she was the key. She unlocked my heart again and my love began to pour freely out into the open. That's why I immediately sat down to write her a reply. I wanted her to know how much I love her. I wanted her to see that I absolutely will love her, unconditionally, for the rest of my life. I've never know such absolute truth in my life. For once I find myself asking, "Where did I go right?"
Thanks for listening. |
