I have looked at you from afar
wondering what you do and who you are
I never seen a man so true
I thought if I should be quiet or talk to you
I wanted to get to know you
but didn't know how to come about
for you were sort of intimidating to me
but for some reason I had a doubt
because you seemed so kind when you walked up to me
asking my name and in your eyes I could see
that you never had the intentions
to belittle or hurt me in any way
and from that moment on I wish I could talk to you and stay
you asked me what I like to do
I didn't know what to say because I was so shy
and had no clue what to do
But somehow I felt comfortable
even with the fact I just met you
It was so awkward and strange
but I thought you were out of my range
We were a few years apart
and you were with the
big crowd
You did not boast but I could tell you were proud
I do not know what you were so proud about
but you had so much confidence
that I didn't have a doubt
Your smile was so sweet
I felt no fear what so ever
Your eyes were so gorgeous
I could stare in them forever
but for some strange reason
I couldn’t look you in the eyes
Its as if I was afraid to know that
you were my angel in disguise
A few weeks after
We began to talk some more
telling each other our dreams
and the things in life that we adored
I felt so safe and i trusted you so much
I knew nothing could hurt me
when you gave me that gentle touch
When you looked into my eyes
I saw nothing but you
for your eyes gave me security
and a feeling so true
The feeling I had could be replaced by no other
you were not just my friend
But you were becoming my significant other
We played a little game of
guess who I like
and you could tell from the start
that it was a certain someone named Mike
when you began to tell me
who you had your eyes on
I had a feeling it was me
but I didnt have a good certainty
But the more you told me about her
the more that I knew
the more that I acknowledged
then you said
it is you
my heart began to race
I was so happy and ecstatic
My feelings for you became like a switch
Immediately turned to automatic
our phone calls grew longer
our conversations were unreal
More than I could have ever imagined
I thought I would never be able to feel
About a week before Valentines we were talking on the phone
We were both secretly happy and we didnt feel alone
because we were there for each other
from the beginning of the day
to the late hours of the night
And we would ALWAYS make up after
big and little fights
All these things were running through my head
and thinking how i would love to be with you forever
the only problem was
that we weren’t yet together
I couldn’t come to the conclusion
on why this could be
But then before my brain could realize I heard,
Becky..will you go out with me
Once again my heart began to race
Then my knees grew very weak
I couldn’t speak a word
my mouth wouldn’t let me speak
The only thing my mouth was able to do
was smile uncontrollably
Then a few minutes later i said that
I’d be glad to
From that moment, we became as one
and I knew that through it all
Whatever we would go through we both would’ve won
It's so strange though
how I wanted someone true
Somebody perfect for me
and I thank God that it was you
a few days later we talked even more
You started to spill your feelings for me
and telling it was me that you adore
You told me that I was perfect
and that I had no flaws
That you had a reason for living
and that I was the cause
You told me I was beautiful
and the best girlfriend ever
You told me that you would love
to be with me forever
I felt the same way
the exact same about you
But the next thing that you said
I didn't know what to do
The more you said about me
The more head over heels I fell
I guess it finally worked
for all the pennies I threw down the well
Wishing for someone to always be there,
to always care, and never despair
You said you would always care about me
and I knew from the moment you said it
That it was honest to God true
But I didn't expect for you to say
Becky, I love you
Silence fell for a few minutes after
I wanted to say it back
But I didn't know if I wanted to start a new chapter
But that wasn’t important
The most important thing
was to say it when I meant it
So I wouldn’t lose my wings
I didn't want to say it
when I knew it wasn’t true
But you didnt get mad or get me wrong
Because I was truly in love with you
Every time you said it
I mouthed the words to myself
I don’t know what made me go that way
but I knew I had to wait for the most special, perfect day
The day was the 14th and we were sitting all alone
Exchanging gifts and smiling at one another making it known
that we cared so much and were so happy to be together
and that day i knew was the day that meant forever
I wrote you a note telling you how i felt for you
and how you made the darkest, stormy skies
the most beautiful baby blue
How you made me feel was far beyond repeal
far beyond the migrating path of the
Most strongest and powerful eagle
towards the end of the note
Your eyes grew wide with happiness
gladness, and every possible feeling.
I never told you but every night
It was your face that I was dreaming
Towards the end of the note
in your face i could see was shock
and I knew that you knew you had the lock
That leads to my heart
and you are the bearer
you are the only one
who is allowed to hold it
It is only fair
it said how much I wanted to be with you forever
and that nothing could come between us
that everything I say I meant it and its true
and finally I returned your words and said
Michael, I Love You!
When you were done reading the note
you had the most biggest smile on your face
not a thing could get you mad
not a thing would be a disgrace
you looked into my eyes
and told me you loved me
I looked right back and said I loved you to
we embraced each other and from then
I knew that this is where I belong
Throughout every single moment
That i had spent with you
the best of them all is was when i met you
because if weren’t for that day
we would not be here today
it wouldn’t be a year
It seems so long
I never knew it could come to this
ill always be here for you
through sickness and through health
no matter what you go through
you will never be by yourself
every word i say is true
believe that I love you
believe that I care for you
because I really truly do
Through all the big and helpless little fights
we came out through it all
there is only one thing that comes to mind
I cant imagine not being with you
your the only one I can feel safe and truly loved with
and all I have to tell you is
It Looks Like We Made It!
