I always thought that
our kind of relationship
only existed in dreams -
In the past
I did not want to let anyone really know me
Now
I find that I am telling you things about me
that I long ago forgot
because I want you to understand
everything about me
In the past
I only wanted people to see the best of me
Now
I find that I do not mind your seeing my faults
because I want you to accept me the way I am
In the past
I thought that only I could make the
right decisions for myself
Now
I can discuss all my ideas with you
and you can help me make decisions
because I have such a complete trust in you
In the past
I did not care how I treated people
Now
I find that I have a new sensitivity
towards everyone
because my softest emotions have been
awakened by you
In the past
love was a word that I was not sure of
Now
I find that inside of me
every fiber, every nerve, every emotion, every feeling
is exploding
in an overwhelming emotion of love
I always thought that
our kind of relationship
only existed in dreams -
Now
I have found out that
our kind of relationship
is even better
than my dreams
and the love that
I have discovered
is all for you
