It all started out, when we were about ten;
yet neither one of us had any clue back then!
Throughout all those years, we became very close;
but as for \"us being together\" we didn\'t see any hope!
We could always count on one another as a friend;
knowing the connection that we had would never end!
Constantly being there for each other through thick and thin;
never stopping to wonder, if \"our time\" could or would begin?
Always there to help pick up the pieces of a broken heart;
watching as old relationships end, and then the new ones start!
It was always, \"the next one\" we said we\'d get right;
and once again, after time it became another never ending fight!
Drastically everything changed, and led us to be pulled apart;
left away from each other, mending our own broken hearts!
We had went without any communication for about a year;
the thought of being forgotten, was one of my biggest fears!
Finally after much thought, I had decided to try and reach out;
suddenly I realized what all those feelings were really all about!
Of course you tried to say that five years is too long of a time;
I told you I\'d wait forever, if it meant I had a chance to have you as mine!
Next it started with phone calls, that came day after day;
both of us having so many thoughts, yet not knowing what exactly to say!
Then days, weeks, and even months had gone right by;
with our feelings for each other, becoming our new found high!
Counting down the days until I got you back in my life again;
my heart raced rapidly, knowing you\'d now be more than just a friend!
Wanting desperately to believe in every word you had said to me;
yet something was still keeping me from thinking that it was meant to be!
With only a few weeks left, until you finally get to come home;
it was then I realized just how much my love for you had grown!
Anxiously awaiting to finally be held by you, in your arms;
remembering all the joy you\'d bring me, with just your words and charms!
That Monday will always be the day that my life changed for the better;
mind and heart now happy, that my best friend and I are now together!
Now more than ever, I truly don\'t care what anyone else has to say;
I will cherish you, care for you, and love you more with each and every day!
Patiently I\'ll wait and hope for the day you ask me to take your name;
until then, doing my best to make you happy and doing what we want with no shame!
