He’d Die
for me and I Live for him.
I’m mystified by this Grand design I’m in. Tonight my dogs
started to bark for no reason…My heart started to race as I stared out the
pitch black window they were both barking out of. Then I hear Ralph upstairs
getting out of bed and listened to his footsteps go across the hall as he made
his way downstairs. I knew it was nothing…out that dark window…in the darkness
of the night. What if? Not even a question, knowing that Ralph would Never let
anything happen to me, ever. This man that came downstairs to see what the dogs
were barking at would die for me. It’s hard to wrap my brain around such a
concept, that you could be so madly and deeply in love with someone that you
would give your life for them…that’s beyond powerful.
I live for this man; he puts a smile on my face even in my
dreams. Side by side, we are on a ride, a life time adventure. Just him and I. Surreal…
a warmth like no other, unexplainable unless you are living/feeling it. I don’t
know how he does it, how he gets me the way he does.
The things that he does, that I live for, others wouldn’t understand.
The way he mimics Doug from King and Queens, the way he says “shut it” with a
grin, the way he bites his knuckle when I’m driving him absolutely nuts. The way
he tells me I’m pretty after we get home, after the dress comes off,
after the make-up is gone, when the curls are out, just when I’m me. The way he
stands close. The way we walk, not realizing he is always against the direction
of any kind of harm, my hand placed firmly in his…leading the way. My safety.
I know for certain I would fall apart without him.
Better than a Fairytale, he is all I ever wanted, all I’ve
ever needed.
He crashed into my heart, HARD. A man that I thought would
be incapable of staying with this {just turned 21 year old at the time} trying to wrap my
head around him still not leaving, still wanting to stay. He wouldn’t dream of
going anywhere, anywhere but here, with me.
Without a doubt, my song Tonight.
Tonight I’m going to bed next to the man that loves me more
than himself. A man that thinks my life
is more precious than his own. Amazing.
Goodnight. XO
