What happen to the two ten year olds that would bicker and mock each other? Where are the two little children that would run free like the world was ours? Where did those years of innocence go? Is it so far behind us? Is it all over?
I don't think so.
That road is still going for us. We still have a long way to and I look forward to it because you are at my side. We've come so far and overcame so much. The rest is just a tickle compared to all the pain we went through in our years past. All that pain is now over and you keep me looking to the stars. You keep me alive with your smile. You keep me going with your spirit. You keep coming back for more.
There is that one person in your life that you fight to keep in your life no matter what. To me, you were that person. You were the one who always kept me up all those times I was looking down. You were the one who I could look up to when I needed you. You were the one I could always depend on. You were the one who never gave up. You were the one who turned my life around.
Thank you, Ben. Thank you for everything. For all the adventures you and I went on and the ones we'll take. Thank you for all the times you saved the world. Thank you for all the times you saved me. There's so much I could thank you for. There's so much I need to tell you, but I just want you to hold me right now. Our love will guide us through the future. After all you and I have been through, there is nothing that can change what you mean to me.
Oh what a fool I have been. I've looked for love in all the wrong places and in the wrong people. After I finally admitted to myself, I decided to wait for it again. But you were here this whole time, and I didn't see it. How could I have been so blind? I guess I didn't want to see it. I didn't want to stray from that path of the norm. I didn't want to fall in love with my cousin, but I did it and I have no regrets. Our dreams are becoming real because we love each other. We've always had each other through the good and the bad. No matter what, we'll grow stronger together. I will always have you by my side, and I'll be at yours.
Baby you're all that I want when you're lying here in my arms. I'm finding it hard to believe we're in Heaven. And love is all that I need and I found it there in your heart. It isn't too hard to see we're in Heaven.
Good god this song hurts me sometimes. I was a work and I heard the Bryan Adams version of this song I remembered Do's version I heard from the video "I Miss You Daddy" about a little girl who grew up without her father after he died in 9/11. When I recognized the song, I started to break down because the video broke my heart and left that imprint on me. But, I figured that since the song is about someone confessing their love and not about someone passing away, I figure to exorcise those emotion than to write it in a story. Even if it's not a tribute to a decedent, it still reminds me of the video and even while listening to it while writing this, I still feel it. All in all, the story is about Gwen telling Ben how much she loves him.
