My After From Sister Book

My After (from Sister book)
We met when we shouldn't have.
Some kind of spell cast by who? 

No witch I know. 
Giving us something beyond priceless. 
Invisible yet tangible. 
Incredulous but infinite. 

Hold me.
My love for you is worth a world's weight on my back. 
Your love frees me and we glide as one. 
Together we'll beat the doubters.

Love me.
I dream of you engulfing me. 
Like Leyte or Persia.
Our battle is won. 
Our love is daring.
Kiss me.

There's a before and after.
You're my after. 
May it be for millennia. 
I love you.
You, my after.
