It was the long awaited night that I had waited for, wanting to meet
you, see you, hear and feel your laugh and warmth that you always gave
me.

You loved being with me, your time was always well spent. You had such
an impact on me, when you left I didn't know where you went.

You loved me, through all your glories and phases you were there. You
were my night in shining armor. We danced, we laughed, you gave up
your life for me never thinking about yourself first.

The day had come, I finally could almost feel you, I did. Oooh, your
so much more than I ever would have thought. You married, you shared
some of your moments from your day, but it was me that you would stop
and stare and wonder with at the end of your day. Some of your most
open and most vulnerable thoughts were spent with me and I still never
knew who you were. Well, I'll let you lay down and rest in peace for
the night until I think about you tomorrow.
