Swept Away

You are beautiful and I love you. I want to express my deep, sincere gratitude. Being in love with you enabled me to transcend some serious obstacles. My life had become broken, enchained in noxious habits. They were poisoning my life and strangling the natural joy. I had tried to end them, but each attempt seemed to end in failure. They distracted me, they consumed my attention and provided me with no happiness; they were sources of regret and shame. Yet I could not seem to get free of them.

But this love changed all the rules. Being in love with you changed the game entirely. Shortly after falling in love with you I abruptly changed course and direction. And it was easy and natural. Things which I couldn’t stop doing before I met you I couldn’t stand doing after opening my heart to your beauty. Having this love for you inside me, I didn’t like those cravings being a part of me at all.

Love is the fabric of the universe. Love is what saves us. How can I thank you enough.
