I Never Knew I Would Love You Like I Do

Published by Family Friend Poems January 2009 with permission of the Author.

I never knew that I would love someone the way I love you.
You have opened the door to a new and exciting life
that I had never imagined could be...

My days are not empty with you by my side,
and my nights are not as dark with you in my life.

You bring me flowers and leave me love notes.
You make me laugh with your funny jokes.

You hold me close in your arms when things seem tough.
You lend me your shoulders with my heavy loads.

You whisper I love you when you think I'm asleep.

The miles may take us far apart,
but we leave each other the love in our hearts.
Never a night is missed to say I love you.
The minutes turn to hours and then into days.
I am so thankful you, my love, came my way.
