i wrote this poem before
about someone i thought i loved
but as our relationship progresses
i feel those words coming back to me
you are my reason for living,
the reason i am alive,
the reason i continue living in this fucked up world
i'm not comparing you to him, 
you two are NOTHING alike
he's an asshole
you are not!!!

you are my reason for smiling 
my reason for loving people 
rather than hating them
you've shown me a magical thing
that some people never see
i've seen the light
the light of love
it is so bright and it never flickers
the blub never burns out
and it will never have to be replaced

with him it wasn't a light it was just darkness
darkness because i was lying to myself
because i lied to him
it was darkness because i was just another girl on his list
but i never have to think of it as a loss
i've found my soul-mate and i will never be happier

the smile i have on my face now is for you
the breath i am taking now is for you
the minute that just passed means i am one more minute
closer to you!!
to finally being complete for the rest of this life!!

i love you and i will forever!!
