Eight years ago today, we went on our first ‘big’ date


Years later, it isn’t that date I remember best
It’s all the small ones that followed


It’s hard to put to words my feelings for her


I never knew what true love was before her
Without her, I don’t think I could ever know it again


Over the years days have gone by
And the monotony of life has gotten the better of me
Causing me to forget just how special she is


Still, every evening I walk through that door
Only to find the most wonderful and exquisite creature
Waiting for me on the other side


That never gets old


She’s the one with whom I have shared everything


And best of all, we have so many more years ahead of us


I love you Allison
