Its That Kind of Love

I messed around and fell in love, ya'll.  I know what you're thinking too. How could someone like me ever fall in love?  I'm just as surprised.  I had plenty of friends who fell for "the one" only to see it end miserably, so I had lots of examples of why not to take the plunge.  But damn it if love didn't come sneaking up on me.  But a pleasant surprise it has been.  But this isn't an ordinary love.  This isn't some high school love. Not a I like you today but who knows how I'll feel tomorrow kind of love. Not a you're just the flavor of the month kind of love. This is an adult kind of love.  A mature kind of love.  A strictly for the grown and sexy kind of love. This is a I didn't meet the one but instead I met my other half kind of love.  It's a I didn't know how incomplete I was until she came into my life and showed me things about myself I never knew kind of love.  It's a can't wait to grow old with you kind of love. It's a not just about me but now about us kind of love.  It's a whatever I do I do it for you kind of love.  But it's not a perfect love.  It's a work in progress but always on the right track kind of love.  It's a sometimes we argue about stupid things but I can't ever stay mad at her kind of love.  It's a she never sugarcoats the truth because she knows I need to hear it kind of love.  It's an even if we break up we could never be just friends because you have deeply impacted my world that you will always be my best friend kind of love.  This is a complex kind of love but it is mine.  Damn I messed around and fell in love.
