Poem Title:
Poem
It was you who got me through one of the darkest times in my life. Your letters providing my only source of comfort, and I never felt alone. As if we were doing the time together, not just helping each other through. When I got transferred, and they took away your mail, I still never forgot you. Instead you became my driving force, the light at the tunnel's end. Everyday looking at your pictures, and vowing to make you mine. Eventually they let me out, I was determined to track you down. No way of knowing if you'd get my message, or if you'd even respond. After three months, without a word between us, I figured you might be gone. But, almost immediately I received your response. Happiness engulfed me, and I regained my hope, That I was one step closer to making you my girl, and giving you the love you deserve The following day you came to see me, looking as beautiful as can be I was shy, even bashful, nervous is not even the word. But, you took control of the conversation, and put my mind at ease. After months of waiting, and so much anticipation, I felt I might be let down. But, your even more amazing in person, Than I could ever dream about. Sometimes I find it hard to believe it's true, That someone like myself would end up with you. Our pasts so different, it's amazing our paths converged. But, somehow us being different, seems to truly work. We've built a bond that's unbreakable, A love so real and true. A love that lasts forever, no matter what we do. I never would've believed when I got your first letter, That you'd started into motion, our future together. It seems impossible a jail romance could ever grow so strong Or, something that we did to pass the time would develop in a bond. If you'd told me then, where we'd be now, I'd tell you, you were wrong. But, all that matters is that we got here, it doesn't matter how. And, I can't even imagine a life without you in it now.
