" Awash in a sea of dreams I found your hand, you gave me the honor and privilege of guiding and protecting you. Like a faery born aloft on the dreams of the wind you gave rise to my purpose and my heart" ~ BTL"
There are so many things to treasure in this life... A happy, warm home, comfort and security, and a true unconditional love that makes the heart swell to give it name. Honestly, it wasn't too long ago that I was beginning to think that real, old-fashioned love just didn't happen to folk in the modern age, especially for someone like myself. I thank the Lord that I was wrong... June brings so much light and joy to my world that it really is hard for me to remember or recall anything that happened before I was blessed to have her in my life. It is in this spirit that I endeavor to go forward with a spirit of appreciation.
Sometimes I think there isn't a way that I can show my affection and appreciation for her adequately. She continues to be there for me when I know that sometimes life is no picnic for her too. I don't think I will ever be able to appreciate her beautiful smile, the softness of her skin and hair or say "I love you" too much...
I won't always get so personal on this blog, and I apologize for doing so now, but sometimes, it's important to say it loud and proud. I love you June, and even though distance hurts and schedules don't always mesh, my heart is yours and I would grow with you... more...
I am speechless under your love. I certainly never thought I would find someone like you. I thought the dreams I dreamt were fairy-tales, not a reality that I could someday live and breathe.
ReplyDeleteI never thought I would hear my name spoken with such love and devotion, or see so much genuine emotion shine in someone's eyes for me, or feel the things I feel and feel them flow back.
I love you, Daddy. It does hurt, but true love waits. I wait, not always as patiently as I would hope to gift you, or with as much grace as I would like to, but with a heart full of a love that is pure and purely yours. I am yours heart, mind, body and soul.
Thank you for loving me in all my perfect imperfection.
