My Brittany

So there you were, this gorgeous thing on crutches
And I was lower than low could get.
How were you my friend?
Why was I so lucky to know you?

I must have gone on and on
About how I had been wronged, and yet
There was never a moment where your
Friendship faltered.
I never felt alone.

The mistakes I made only led
To the realization that somewhere out there,
I must have someone truly great waiting.
So then we started a great friendship
And I never thought it could be more than that.

My heart was exposed, and I felt
I was not worthy of love.
Was I using you as a rebound?
I could not help but feel so,
And I felt I was transparent,
Alone in my misery, and all the world
Could see what I was doing wrong.

So, how did it lead to this?
Was it thanks to Chad and his bringing
The two of us together?
Or was it more than that, some cosmic balance finally being restored?
Whatever the reason, whatever the cost, whatever the pain,
I am grateful, I will pay it, I will heal it.

I am more in love with you with every day that passes
And I will never let that love perish.
I might not enjoy every second of what happens,
But the end result, every single precious moment we have,
That is what makes it all worthwhile to call you mine.
Always
Forever
For the rest of our lives
