I WANT YOU TO KNOW

I WANT YOU TO KNOW
Life races by so quickly I barely have time to
draw breath, let alone take the time to tell
you just how important you are to me.
To tell you how much I love you.
Or how the sun somehow seems to shine brighter
when you’re around. Or even how the greyest
of grey skies don’t seem half as dark
when you’re by my side.
I’m so busy reaching towards tomorrow that
today passes by in the blink of an eye and
all the things I want to say simply become
yesterday’s thoughts ... and that’s why,
here and now, I want you to know, without
a shadow of a doubt, that I love you.
I love you with my heart, my soul, my mind
and every tiny ounce of my being. You are
everything to me. You’re my rock, my treasure,
my reason and my life. I love your crazy
sense-of humour, respect your heart-warming
honesty and cherish your never-ending belief
in the power of love. In the power of us.
So, just in case ‘tomorrow’ never comes, or even
just in case I haven’t made it clear enough,
I want you to know that my heart has been yours
since the moment I saw you - and it will be yours
until the very end of time.
