Beware: I'm not a poet...

I'm not a poet, and not very gifted in the meaningful words category but being with Alex has brought out the utmost "mushiness" in me. So here is something that is somewhat descriptive of how I feel about Alex in a somewhat poetic fashion:

An encouraging word, a gentle touch.
You took my hand and said "I believe in you",
Suddenly there was power behind my voice and courage in my hands.

Facing the fears that lie in the way,
I can stand in victory with you by my side.
Though it is not yet time to share our lives
we will join our minds to learn further what's inside.

We make each other laugh, we've seen each other cry
it's as if we're old friends from way back when.

You have chosen to guard my heart
This action shows selflessness, a lack of greed, and an abundance of respect.

Thank you for choosing to pursue.

You took a chance on 2000 miles (get ready for the cheesy ending)
I now am all smiles.
