When you left, I remember feeling like I was losing the fairytale. I couldn't fathom why life, which had finally smiled on me, wanted to take it away. You were the only thing that I had ever felt sure of and the idea of losing you scared me..you had more of my heart than I even realized was there; I've never been afraid to lose anything before because I've never felt certain about anything or anyone.
Us, was the first time in my life I felt really happy. You brought a sense of relief into my life with you. I felt for the first time that this "you and me" thing could be something great--it could be real and it could be palpable. We were not going to be a what if or a should be--you're my sigh of relief and happy dance.
Now, I'm almost in tears because I realize that I still am ridiculously happy with you--we still have a fairytale; it's just in the process of being written. It may not be the "easy" or "simple", traditional picket fence type of love story, but it is a page turner. We will never be boring or predictable, our life together is an adventure and I'm ready for it all. I'm not sure what the ending will be, but the beginning and middle have given me more love in one year than I've received in my entire life.
You've been my great beginning and I'm so inexplicably grateful for you.
