My mind speaking in silence,
you voice the words of my thoughts
before I even have the chance to
so much as part my lips and
make the slightest sound.
Your mind reflects mine own,
you know my heart inside out.
Darling, you are my love, my life,
you are the other half of my soul
for which I've been searching,
completing me with a matching wing,
flying with me into the stars.

When I think of you in my daydreaming,
a giddy happiness overcomes me,
truly laughing in bliss and picturing
myself cuddled back in your arms,
watching sappy, romantic movies
after a wonderful dinner you've enjoyed
cooking for me while I sat upon the
counter comfortably and watched,
humming and singing with you.
You whisper fairy tales in my ears
and I read to you from my favorite books
before we sleep with our limbs entwined.

Generally both optimistic, we share our
depressed moments (usually seasonal)
with each other, talking and listening,
understand and reassuring one another.
You have high ideals and strong goals,
a definite desire to be something and
to do something with your life and
simply being with you makes me want
to make myself a better person,
to strive for better things and to
succeed in life where I once had nearly
given up all hope: in Love.

Cling to me, my sweethearted prince
as I shall forever cling to you.
My romantic, loving poet you know
as well as I do that we were really
made for one another in all aspects.
In height and heart we fit together
perfectly, my truly significant life love.
You are my dominate while I kneel
before you in submission knowing
I can be true to myself as I am
collared with all your love and respect,
forever Yours, while you are Mine.

Built in stone, our castle home rises from
the green, green grass of a large meadow,
surrounded by willow trees and flowers,
gardens of fruit growing under starry skies,
cool nights and warming dawns each and
every day of our lives together spent making
love beneath the moon, and in the early
morning rays of sunlight I'll wear a short
skirt in your family tartan as you wear your kilt,
playfully urging you to unlace my ebony corset
and take me out in the open on a windy day.

Your imagination reflecting my own,
something that's grown from childhood,
developing more and more as others seem to
diminish with age, my wonderful love you
spark my heart to sweetly flutter and make me
feel so unbelievably special, loved and truly
worth something, blissful in this life with you.
I've given in to vulnerability, trusting that
you'll never hurt me, investing my dreams
in a future where I belong: in your arms.
I never thought I'd dream again, but you...
you I trust, You I love, You I want for all forever.

You've planted the seeds of new hope in my
weary heart and blessed me with your love.
With these scissors, my dearest one,
I cut a lock of my hair like lovers of old
and offer it to you, taping it inside this card.
Gazing down upon the small knot tied in
that lock of dirty blond hair, I send this as
a gesture of eternity: Promise of my love.
Smiling to myself I perfume the paper with
Persuasion (Elizabeth Arden), lick the edge
of the envelope, press it shut and seal it
with a rose-tinted kiss.

S.W.A.K.

I love you!
