Holding My Breath

My love for you grew from a spark
I saw you and you left your mark
It started back some years ago
A steady building, burning slow
This notion that you were the wife
The one I've searched for all my life
I tried to purge it from my mind
But always back its way would find
And come back stronger, so it went
I liked the fragrance of your scent 
Inhaling deeply, all of you
I'll exhale when we say, I do
