Counting the minutes...

The past girls you dated were in it for
all these different cruel reasons.
One for money, the next for your looks,
their alibis changed with the seasons.

They used you in ruthless ways,
cut you as deep as they possibly could.
Some of the wounds are unable to heal,
damaged you in ways no one should.

We started to get to know each other.
We got to know a little bitty more each day.
I couldn't help but wonder what those girls were
thinking, how could they treat you that way?

We started liking one another more and more,
but its not like we weren't trying to be careful.
We both didn't want to get shattered once again,
but what we felt just decided to take its own toll.

and for that...I can honestly say i'm grateful,
I don't know how I got along without you.
Every tough and unbearable day i have,
you're the one who helps me get through.

It would never even cross my mind to use you,
not for your money or for your looks.
Thats something that just crosses so many lines,
something that should be taken out of any play book.

I would never violate you in any way.
I would never look you in the eyes and lie.
I would never stab you in the back.
I would never just tell you good bye.

I treasure you more than anything,
you're my one and only true love.
I will never let you go or leave your side.
I just know you're a gift from up above.

I'm just waiting for that precious day to see the person that
warms my heart and to finally be in your embrace,
and for once in my life, get to feel completely safe.
I'll be able to let all those terrifying memories be erased.

But until then I just want you to remember,
that I miss you more each moment and
I will always be waiting, no matter how long, for you.
Know that I love you in a way no one will ever understand.

dedicated to my sweet heart nic
i love you baby <33
