Today was it,

I patiently waited for so long,

Just to feel this moment,

for her to bathe in its glow,

the essence of freedom from

doubt.


I waited all week,

all day,

to hit the roller rink

on ice skates,

I haven't been in years,

but its special with her.


I fell

I fell

I fell,

but I get up,

she's there for me,

she'll always be.


on car rides I've held her,

always,

I'm never letting go.


Going home after

an Icy derby,

god I loved her!

I held on and I waited,

and waited,

until,

with me she walked and

inside my home we followed to,

I hesitate,

but I know I can,

practice made perfect.

at least I used to believe.


In my room,

I take her and I said,

"marry me in the future"

 "all this time I've been thinking and I've said it."

I was so naive. I wasn't joking around,

and then,

right then,

I felt we were free.


I couldn't wait to see her again,

the then keeper of my freedom and secrets,

we had so much more to go,

I wasn't afraid anymore.

that was then.
