Wondering

Sometimes I wonder if you really know - if you really, really know - how much I treasure each minute spent with you.

Sometimes, I wonder...

I apologize this is rather late...but...

Sometimes I wonder how much you treasure each minute we spend together. Not because I doubt how much it means to you. Far from it. But because I am amazed that till this day, you still love me as much as you do. To answer your question, I don't know how much you treasure each minute we spend together...How much you love me just baffles me. I often find myself metaphorically scratching my head and wondering just how much our relationship means to you (I really do). I know it's a lot. My brain and my heart just can't process how much. It's beyond me. I can't put a value to it. I can't put my finger on it. I just know it's you, and it's me, and it's you loving me beyond my comprehension.

I often wonder if I can love you back just as much. I feel I often fall short on that. I've let you down many times, Grace, I know. I've let you down more times than you would know.

I want you to know this: a few days ago, my heart seemed as though it was enlightened. And then I prayed to God and said (I guess with a brutal and yet sincere honesty), "God...teach me not to ask for anyone else. Instead, help me learn to love Grace more and more everyday."

It was a short and simple prayer. I prayed it when we started out. It feels good to pray it again now :). And you know what? I find myself loving you more and more, wanting to know you again, and wanting to love you again, more and more, and for exactly who you are. For the first time in a long while, I say all this without any shadow of doubt at all on my mind (I apologise when previously I did not completely mean what I said). My conscience is clear. I know I really mean all this.

So here's to you and I
We'll keep our love alive
We'll steadily burn bright for one another
And readily learn to love each other

I love you, Grace :)
