Loved in Advance: Always Remember

Captured in these lines are the purest emotions I’ve wrote,
God forbid the “Future Me” ever thinks it’s a joke,
But if he did, and you love me, please take this key,
A letter to Him, so he can always find me,
A letter to you, because you are my Gem,
Knowing love can easily be lost, not found on a whim,
I am the one that will never forget,
Waiting on love, until told to cast my net,
I appreciate what was, had, and now is lost,
And recall of how much of my soul it cost,
I remember changing, to be a better man,
Built in His image, design for His plan,
Desires for companionship, revived once again,
Hoping, praying, I’ll get the chance to love again,
I remember the failures and guilt of my past,
Thinking that relationships could never truly last,
Saying if opportunity ever called,
I would cherish her forever, winter, summer, spring and fall,
I would remember, winter nights; no heater could replace her warmth,
And summer days wishing she’ll comfort my heart,
I remember thinking, as quickly as these words rushed from this pen,
Oh how I wish the distance between us would end,
If you’re still reading this, just know you’ll always have my heart,
Love’s actions louder than my words, so you’ll feel that part,
I remember truly honored, to have you in my life,
Even more so to know you’ll be my wife,
I remember people count time by the moments that were spent,
But can lose track of Love, where it came or went,
So I’ll pray, I’ll never lose this gift placed in my life
And In advance I’ll write this, to assure you I’ll always stay right.
