Who would have
thought?
A year ago I could
never have imagined that today this is where I'd be.
With her. My love.
The oldest and
biggest love of my existence.
This time last year
I hadn't even found her.
This time last year
I was pining away for a love I imagined might be possible.
She had captivated
my heart. My mind and surely my soul.
And she didn't even
know it.
For 5 weeks I dreamt
up our life together
I did not realise
the wonders reality would reach.
I thought she was
spectacular in my dreams.
Oh man but my dreams
had nothing on reality.
I had this memory of
her.
Of her chocolate
skin. Long dreadlocks. Dainty features.
And her eyes…her
eyes that contained the beauty of the world. The whole world. My whole world.
I dreamed she would
love me. Purely and deeply. Selflessly and whole-heartedly.
I dreamed she would
make me smile from the depths of my soul.
I was right
But I underestimated
her impact and the sheer size of her love.
In reality I sit and
watch her speak on the phone.
With her chocolate
skin, dreadlocks and dainty features.
And those eyes.
And I think wow
she's here. In my life. Full access. All the time.
In reality she has
shown me love in ways I didn't know it could be displayed.
She has loved me far
She has loved me
deep
She has loved me
wide
She has loved me
whole
And I have loved her
In all the ways I
know how and all the ways I have discovered.
My baby, more than a
dream come true because my dreaming underestimated you.
