together
even then
even when
I barely knew
myself
you knew
me
you knew
us
from the beginning
it was
too perfect
too painful
how could it ever work?
this Thing
you
me
Us
I was so sure that
the reality of every day
would tear apart
dissolve
ruin
what we had
it was the pain
I was sure
that made us so perfect
but you insisted
you were sure
and I could not
turn away
could not
breathe
it hurt
to breathe
we wanted to
want
but the desire
was so strong
it was a need
and certainly
that
could
never
last
yet
here we are
I let you
and you took care of me
and now
here we are
taking care of each other
Happy Anniversary, Hubby...a whole decade and it still feels exciting and fresh...yet I don't even remember life before you. I really am the lucky one.
*In addition to my 10-year wedding anniversary, there was another anniversary of sorts this month...when I was off gallivanting to Paris, this little blog celebrated its THIRD year! Happy blog-a-versary to me/it!
Happy, happy anniversaries! Can't wait to the see the Paris pix!
