I Love You

There you were standing at my door
I was so nervous but excited at the same time
Sitting there talking to you, getting to know you
You were funny, smart and gentle
In a short time I realized that I wanted to be near you all the time

As the months and years flew by you were my best friend
I knew I loved you and always would
Then the night came when you put that little ring on my finger
You told me that you loved me and wanted me forever

Three months after pledging our love we were going to be a family
A dream come true for the both of us
Then before I knew it our son was born
He brought us so much joy
Life just wouldn’t be the same without him

Four years have gone by since then
It has been far from easy
We have had our share of challenges
Yet through it all our love has concurred all
Our love is stronger then ever

Now after five years of marriage
We will soon be completing our family
Another bond for us to share
Our love is unbreakable

Tonight, our fifth wedding anniversary
I look at you and all I see is love
I know that I will hold you in my heart and soul forever
I will love you now and always
I will love you till I take my last breath

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
