Am I Enough?

by Forever Hers   Nov 3, 2013


Might it be foolish to wonder if my love would be better off
With someone else?
Perhaps.
But I cannot shake the thoughts that romp
Through my mind asking me
If I am enough.

The truth is,
I do not know.

I love her more and more with each breath I take,
And yet, I feel she deserves better
Though she says there's no one better
Than me.

She's an angel walking amongst humans,
Her hand intertwined with mine
And to be adorned
With a ring in the years to come;
Though I still wonder
If I am enough.

I do not wonder because I want her to be with me,
Though I do,
But I wonder because she deserves the finest things
In the world and I wish to provide as many as I can.
My love, my heart, my soul are things only for her,
But I stay awake this night and many nights before
And ask myself,

"Am I enough?"

    May I say yes, you are?

    Your love belongs no where else but in the hands, heart, body and soul of your girlfriend because no one else can love you the way that she does. No one. Might sound selfish but it is true. The love that you feel for her is something she is not used to, that she feels each and every day when love used to be a cloudy idea for you. Yet, you've made it crystal clear, given it light that it did not possess before.

    Yes, people are going to try to stand in our way dear but... honest question... if you truly thought I deserved better than you and that I thought I deserved better (which I do not because I meant it when I said that you are everything I could ever want and need) don't you think I would have walked away by now? But I haven't. You know why?

    Because you're the only one my love grows for. No one else except my family is inside of my heart and they're off to the edges because you... this love I have for you is all-consuming in the most beautiful way. You make it pound with a simple hello, spread a grin across my face with a simple message from you. You're the trading behind my smile, laugh, happy tears and existence. When the one who saved you happens to be the one who has given you a love and a feeling that is scares you so much to even think about having, how could I let go? You give me so much more than you think. I do not need the physical. I could spend my whole life loving you from a computer screen. I do not care.

    I want you and only you. No one is ever going to change that.
