Looking back on past writings is a great way to get a peak into your frame of mind. This is a work of reflection as this week marks the 4th year of my boyfriend and I being together.
The first time Cody and I started dating was over 8 years ago, during my freshman year of high school. It's funny to think we're talking about the possibility of marriage and spending our lives together, because when we first started dating he couldn't muster up the courage to ask me out himself. He had our friend ask me for him at a Football game. (Thanks, Isaac for asking me for him)
He's been a huge part of my life, and I'm excited for what's to come.
Obviously, since he's part of my life he's become a part of my writing as well. The poem I've included this week is the first poem I ever wrote to him, which I wrote about 4 years ago. My writing style has changed a lot since then and this poem is pretty sappy , but it’s still really special to me and I wanted to share it as we celebrate our relationship this week.
You are mine
as I am yours
just like the oceans
belong to the shores
while all the birds
belong to the skies
I am yours
while you are mine
As all the creatures
belong to the land
just like the pen
belongs to the hand
just as the light
belongs to the stars
you are mine
as I am yours
the melodies of song
belong to the ears
just like the harmonies of time,
belong to the years
the beat of our hearts
matches in time
as I am yours
and you are mine
while all the birds
belong to the skies
I am yours
while you are mine
just like the oceans
belong to the shores
You are mine, dear
As I am yours
