Until you

I wished for you with every bone in my body and every breath in my lungs. I was patient and had faith that you would come.The days passed and the years slipped by along with my hope and my increasingly waivering faith. My eyes welled with tears at every impass of anything remotely related to you. My heart grew heavier with the burden of the reality that not all dreams come true. That though I wished for you with all of my being, I may very well not be one of the chosen ones at the receiving end of this blessing. Before you, my everyday was measured in giant lapses of time. Days, hours, weeks and months passed me by with no great significance. I slept forever, I studied for years and procrastinated like tomorrow had no significance. And then... there was you times two. Double the blessing and double the joy.With your existence my world takes on a new meaning... Time is measured in seconds and the days brimming with a million and one moments of pleasure, joy and heartache.  You are my now, my motivation for a better tomorrow, my triumph, my greatest fear and biggest accomplishment. You are my everything.
