At first, it felt like friendship,

just as comfortable and easy

as a picnic on a Sunday in the park…

I liked your voice, your walk,

the way you listened, how you laughed,

how your arms felt safe and cozy.

Then suddenly, I felt a longing

to be with you always.

And I knew I had found

within the warmth

and trust of friendship

the wonder and the joy of something more.

With you, I’ve found

the best friend,

the finest partner,

and the sweetest love

anyone has ever knnown…

And I’m so grateful

life led me to you.
