The night of decision

Watching sparks fly
looking at the eerie glow
the night is somehow different but how? i really don't know
the flames jump high and dance in the air
your soft gentle touch tells me you'll always be there
you pull me so close beside you i can feel you breathe
you begin to whisper your love for me and everything i believe
you turn my face to yours and you bring our lips together i fall in love with you all over again and wish this moment could last forever
over and over again until we end up on the floor
i know you love me for me but this is something so much more
you feel me and touch as i do the same
suddenly all falls silent when you barely whisper my name
we talk for over an hour about our love and life together
you tell me you love me for what must be the millionth time today
then asked if it was okay to go all the way
i swallowed the lump in my throat and just kissed you in an instant suddenly the entire world became completely distant
we forgot everything around us
it was just you and me
i never knew that doing this with you could be so damn pleasing
when things slowed down and we were both to tired you looked me in my eyes
you got off and laid down next to me and
turned your head and cried
i asked you what was wrong and turned your face to mine
scared to know what you would say
scared that you weren't satisfied
you stopped crying and gave me a smile and said nothing was really wrong
you pulled me close beside you and kissed me for so long
i stopped kissing you, got up and put my clothes back on
you grabbed my arm as i walked away and asked the same question "whats wrong?"
i said " you've always had the same problem, ever since the start.you will give me the entire world,but you wont just share your heart"
you got up and got dressed and sat me down by the fire
all i could say was how tired i was of being in love with a liar
you put your arm around me and told me why you cried i laid my head on your chest as you told me why you lied
you apologized for pressuring me into giving you all i had
you told me you were crying because you thought you'd made me mad
i told you it was okay i wouldn't have done it if i didn't want to
you kissed the top of my head and once again said i love you

One year later in front of the fire listening to the crackling noise
with the love of my life right next to me and in my arms my little baby boy

This moment in time with them was never in my life's vision but the rest of my life was changed
on that amazing night of decision
