After all this time,
I re-read the notes;
Piecing the fragile fragments of us together.
They were spread out all around,
Encircling me,
And the words haunted and comforted
Me both.
I love every moment I have
Ever spent with you and
I love all the moments
That have yet to come.
The notes made me remember.
Even things I thought I had forgotten
Are now as clear as
Droplets of water, scintillating in the
Sun.
I am glad we are still
Friends with Lauren and Will.
I think we both,
Owe them a lot.
Their baby daughter,
Is beautiful.
I will love the three of them
Eternally.
I know, bad things have happened and
More, undoubtedly, will occur.
But you're with me and
You make me brave
And strong.
Love drives us
To do strange, crazy, reckless things.
I never expected you to actually
Want me back.
But here we are
It has been an adventure,
Spending these years with you.
And, like I said,
I look forward to
Many more.
I hope you will let me
Love you endlessly.
Let me know you more than
Anyone else. Let me see your
Heart
Because,
You have always had mine,
Even when you didn't know it.
I want you to know me and I you,
So we will belong to each other.
Please know I love you and every time I think of the ocean, I think of you.
In fact, you're in every thought I own.
It won't make a difference-
The amount of love I carry within
Will leave no lasting imprint in this world.
No one will remember us
In a few generations time,
Maybe less.
Because in the end, we are all irrelevant;
Especially me.
But you helped make me into someone more
Than I was.
And for that, I am yours for the taking.
I have always been yours.
