To D

Who would have thought, in a dark and hazy bar,that you and I would find love
I, the arrogant, selfish one that liked to live on the edge, the product of a broken home
You were quiet, reserved, a good girl from a good family
Over the next 10 years we learned how to tolerate each other
Over the last 10, we learned how to love each other
Not so long ago, deep in the depths of despair and melancholy, I tested our love
Past what was reasonable
Past what was fair
Past what I deserved
Yet, you stayed by my side
You never left
I did not, and do not deserve you
But I do love and cherish you
I will never forget your faith in our love
I will always remember your patience and compassion

I used to wonder what it felt like to be in love

Now I know

From the depths of my heart

I Love You

Happy Valentines Day!
