Story of Our Love

8-17-2012

If you can remember this
Just think back and you will see
A lonely but self-dependent woman
Crossed in front of your path, yes me.

I came here a few moths ago
Looking to start fresh and new
The beginning of summer
You would think this would be untrue.

But I tell you now
That I never had any doubt
But seeing your reaction
Everyone thought I was just grout.

The job was never a girl one
And I could feel the skepticism from every side
But that never made me stop
I never lost my pride.

Soon enough I over threw your qualms
And proved I was better than most
I was doing quite well
And every day we became more close.

The conversations started to last longer
The feelings started to rise
I knew you had something to tell me
But the age difference made you disguise.

Not knowing how you felt
Other than being best friends from the start
We opened up to each other
We shared each others hearts.

We had so much in common
Working together made us close
For all that time we had to talk
We became closer than most.

We thought along the same lines
Shared each others thoughts
Knew we could open up
With knowledge of judgment never to be sought.

So as this story goes
I hope you are looking back
Do you remember that night on the deck
Where laughter was the only sounding crack.

I picture you smiling
That adorable little grin
That caught my eye at first glance
It was a victory of a win.

Now then I ask you take
Just another moment of your time
And picture a sign on a tree
What is the first thought that comes to mind.

Your smile is now bigger
I can see your laughter grow
I hope I make you feel this way
With every thought that comes and goes.

Now that I have your eyes
I don't ever want to see you leave
You're the reason for my happiness
If you disappear I will continuously grieve.

I fell madly, deeply, in love
The day you said those three words
I could not believe what I heard
My soul expanded an extra two thirds.

But if you snatch a second of your time
And take a look at where we are now
Can you even imagine a time before
Where we didn't even know how.

We are the best of friends
And lovers from the heart
I will stand by you
We will never part.

And as I come to the end
Of a long story indeed
I hope you can keep our memories
In a place for us to reread.

Now do me a little favor
And think back to all the good days
Keep a smile on you face
And promise you'll never change your ways.
