I was barely aware of what was going on,
Barely saw anything that was happening around
Barely knew I was lost in the dark
Barely aware that I needed to be found.

But you came and you saw me there
Stumbling lonely and afraid in the dark
Wearing a brave face and pretending
It was just a nighttime walk in the park

And you sidled out of the dark and guided me
Took my hand in yours so that I didn't realise
Not until much later did I know how you helped
I think I remembered when I got lost in your eyes

You talked to me through the night
And sometimes during the hard days
You helped me so subtlely and constantly
I don't believe I can count all the ways

And yet one day, you appeared before me
All a big surprise you'd been planning
And suddenly I woke from my dream state
And saw how your love had been spanning

All the darkness and the delusion
And how it had helped me pull through
And in those first few days I saw
How deeply I was falling for you

And now I've fallen , O, so deep
You're always on my mind and in my heart
And I wonder how deep I'd be
If I realised I loved you from the start

So now I'm yours, solely, wholly,
Please take care, please keep loving me
I want to be no one but yours
And forever follow thee.

Thankyou for all the wonderful surprises you have given me recently.
These recent times have been some of the most divine of my life and I
hope that there will be many more exactly like them.
Love you with all my heart and soul and everything that I am,
Your Meli
Always
