I remember the first day we
met just like it was yesterday
My heart was so guarded then
Afraid of being hurt yet another
time
Extremely cautious of not
letting anyone get to close to me as I
always end up losing a friend
But you, you were… relentless
in your pursuit of me
but patiently waited
until I was complete- Emotionally
You opened the key to my
heart….
I remember our first date at
the coffee shop..(giggles)
Just a short distance from
here
We sat there sipping on Mocha
Latte Frappucinos
While, Laughing our asses off at the “SILLIEST” “MOST INSIGNIFICANT” things
I remember how we even cried right
there, together
sharing life’s joys and pains,
successes and failures,
victories and defeats
I could feel your heart
communicating with mine
Never-Judging
or looking down on me for making foolish mistakes in my past,
that’s now in the past
You opened the key to my
heart….
When I am walking around the
house with no make up on
in jeans, sweats and a t-shirt looking real average
you never fail to remind me of
just how beautiful and lucky you are to
have me and I vice versa
The spontaneous “I love you’s”
and
smiley face text msgs or the-
“I’m just calling to check in”
or
“just thinking about you” phone calls
are all confirmations of how much you care about my feelings
While respecting my emotional
character and vibrations as a woman
You opened the key to my
heart….
For all the times you rubbed
my feet (with the aloe vera and shea butter mixture) after an exhausting day of
work
Prepared me a home cooked meal
served with a glass of my favorite wine
along with A fresh bouquet of
my favorite flowers , candles and gourmet chocolates
arranged about the room
reassures me that I am your
queen
You opened the key to my heart…
Listening to my overly hypersensitive
emotional babble
even during that time of the
month,
Careful, Not to make comments about the gossip surrounding my coworkers
Instead- grabbing my hands to speak a word of fervent prayer
EVEN- when you KNOW, they have WRONGED ME !
You opened the key to my heart...
It is your ability to always see the good in people,
It is your ability to always see the good in people,
while finding the positives in
a negative
are the reasons why
our Love has withstood the test of time
our Love has withstood the test of time
This day and forever more…
