I just needed to start over,
Wanted to end it all,
End the pain, the hate, the life...
End my life.
I was dark, suicidal, and depressed.
Then one day I met you.

You saw my pain,
And wanted to help.
But I didnt want to let you in,
Though in the end I gave in.

I needed the help
To break the lies;
To help me define
The good in me.

You took my heart
With swift and skillful hands,
And put together the peices.

In that mending,
You unwittingly
Bound your heart to me.

Later, in an effort to help,
We meditated, two minds as one.
Suddenly I realized
Just what my mind would tell you.
I threw up my sheilds
To save myself the pain.
I knew, or rather thought,
That we would never be together.

Soon after that
My mouth betrayed my heart.
You know how I felt
And took my heart with gentle hands.
Then, a few days after that,
Our kiss was my first.

Now, a year later,
Weve lasted
Through both calm and
Stormy weather.

So lets share this day,
A year after our first;
Meet with a kiss,
And re-affirm those three special words.

Its our first anneversary,
It wont be our last,
Because you are my true love,
My mate eternal,
The love of my soul.
And from now till forever...
We shall be together.
