Week Two
Song Inspiration: Lamb by Gorecki
I've been waiting so long. All this time I've loved you, and never known your face. The months have drug on tediously, anxiously preparing for your arrival. The constant aches and pains, my heart pounding in my chest; everything has been hell without you.
We lay in this bed, and I hold you in my arms, I have never known completeness like being here, wrapped in the warmth of you. Your smell tantalizes my senses, your soft skin electrifying my own. As I gaze into your warm brown eyes, my heart tears and shatters, then mends back together all in one moment.
For the first time in my life, I loved someone more than myself; for the first time in my life, I know peace. And it's all because of you. Yes, it's been a struggle, and realistically I know there are many more to come, but it's all been worth it.
Could we stay right here, until the end of time? Could we hide away until world stops turning? I vow to keep you safe and loved. I will love you until the last breath leaves my body. My life revolves around you now. It's as if nothing has ever mattered before this moment.
Your little fingers grip mine, and I can't help but grin. Elizabeth Stone once said, "Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body."
I couldn't agree more. You are my heart, my life, and my true love. All wrapped into one tiny person.
