I don't have the heart to wake her up. She's always peaceful when she sleeps.

I think about what she's been through. What we've both been through. How we found each other so late on.

For me, i loved her from the moment we met.

I had to wait, to sit back, watching her be with someone else who wasn't me.

Day after day, week after week, month after month.

Wanting her, needing her to know she would never be alone.

Then she was alone.

I saw her pain, felt it inside of me every day.

Wanting to make it go away.

To ease her loss somehow.

Never feeling i helped at all.

I was there during that one moment of happiness.

By her side all those 20 hours of labour.

Soothing her, comforting her, secretly loving her.

I kissed her softly on the cheek, knowing the truth behind my affection.

I loved her. Love her still.

Now she loves me too.

That glorious moment when we were one. When i showed her my love.

When i felt her love in return.

I see her love everyday.

In her eyes, her smile.

The way she whispers my name when we're alone.

That brief touch of her hand against mine, when no one is looking.

What was once so complicated before.

Is now so simple.

It's love. No need to fear it. No need to deny it.

Just enough to feel it. To know it. To have it.
