Now and Forever
My mind explodes with new thoughts
Leaving behind all my teachers who taught
Waking in an unusual bed
Living life by my last thread
Waking beside someone brand new
But telling him I love him, and meaning it, too
In a new state not knowing anyone
Waking everyday to a brand new sun
Running our household our own ways
Looking forward to brand new days
Being the wife I knew I’d be
Seeing life on a new level I never did see
New responsibilities, new whole life
Being with my other half --- his little wife
Listening to all the words he taught me
Moving on now --- so soon to be
Scared as hell but open so wide
Tired of running and exhausted from hide
Finding answers to my everlasting questions
But being with him in some way destined
I knew I’d love him, I knew I’d be proud
Shouting, “I love you,” in a crowded state so loud
He’s got a beautiful mind and a beautiful soul
I’d pay millions of dollars but never a toll
I’ve been waiting so long for him
Being broken and alone in myself to ‘fend
So many adventures so little time
When he is my reason and I am his rhyme
An opportunity too great to deny
But at the same time so eager to fly
Scared as hell about new surroundings
The only sound is my excited heart pounding
Away from my family, away from my friends
But slowly trusting him as my broken heart mends
So many smiles so less tears
I haven’t smiled this much in years
I want to make a difference --- a permanent mark
He’s brightened my days --- no more misty dark
I see a future with his name
Being just with him --- no more living in shame
I’m so happy, babe, that we’re together
Now you and I can start over ---
