"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

our story continues & Six Word Saturday~

~to have and to hold forever~


Our story continues

yesterday
 12 years together
today
celebrating 6 years of marriage



as i sit here
i can remember clear as day
all that was on that warm summer night

i slowly got out of my car
and walked up to his door
gave a little knock
and took two steps back

his mother answered
i asked if he was there
she turned her back
and yelled

**** there is a woman dressed in a uniform at he door for you
hhhmmm i am a woman
kind of funny cause i was only 20
didn't quite feel like i was this "woman"

i could here his steps coming from the stairs
he turned the corner
and just looked at me for a long second

i smiled and said hi
he said you
i said ya it was me
and you were the a** that cut me off yesterday

we went out that night
and well never did he leave
as i sit here
i can remember clear as night
all the minutes and moments
that have passed before us

as i sit here
i can remember it all

i can remember

the moment i saw you again
after years gone by
the feelings that wooshed inside me
the desire that could not hold me back
the pull that led me to you
the wishful thinking that stirred my thoughts

the road so sweet
l♥ve felt like no other
feelings i couldn't ignor
emotions sweltering

the long road we took
our paths tangled and twisted
and veered in different directions
time wastefully spent
but growth came to be
stronger are you and i
though our love became far different
unified by strength
compassion
a yearning for one another
knowing this is what is to be
knowing this is who we wake for
and who we fall aimlessly for


these two who had met long ago
then seperated by time
were brought back together by some twist of faith

these two i spoke of yesterday
are my husband and i

today we celebrate 6 years of marriage
a day we vowed forever and more

these two children who grew apart through the years
came back together
seperated by life for some time
yet
l♥ve was far deeply rooted in each of their hearts
to keep eachother at bay

so as i sit here this morning

i can remember clear as day
each memory that has passed before me
i remember feelings
i remember the calmness
the excitement i felt
wanting time to speed up
fly

i put my dress on
the final touches
my father opened the door and tears began to fall
are we ready he said
they are waiting

i took his hand
and we walked down the stairs
through the bay window i could see
our sunny day had come to an end

should we call it off
dad are you crazy
im not calling this off because of some rain

i walked to the balcony
looked out upon my family and friends
all gathered together
waiting to see

i looked at him
his smile
and i knew it was my time

the music began
and away we went


~to l♥ve & be l♥ved...a blessing we behold~

Truly Kismet! We share the same anniversary...so I want to share a secret with you. Even after 40 years you will still feel the same excitement when he enters the room, your heart will beat faster when he is close...it just gets better with each year! Happy Anniversary to you both, make some more memories!

Dandelion Dreams said...

That's just beautiful. Happy anniversary to the both of you. :)

My husband and I will be celebrating sweet 16 this year, with having been and lived together for 17. It's insane how our lives intertwined without us ever knowing, as it seemed we were always crossing paths without ever realizing it until that day when everything changed.

I love hearing stories of intersecting paths and love. May you be blessed with many, many more years together.

ginormous hugs!
