A Letter

You’ve changed me. Already. I’ve learned that the idea I’d had in my mind about love was amazingly insubstantial compared to what I’ve discovered. I’ve always known that I have a great capacity to love, and I’ve known what it’s like to love and be in love, but what I’m learning day by day is that this capacity goes far beyond anything I ever could have guessed. It’s out there at the edge of my comprehension, smiling at me, encouraging my mind to follow it, but knowing that it will never be able to fully grasp it. I hope to continue growing and discovering exciting and new things that make me smile like a madwoman when I should be thinking of other things. You complement me perfectly in so many ways, and bring a fire and life to me that I didn’t know I possessed. All paths have been leading to this and where they lead from here can only be somewhere amazing.

The Smashing Pumpkins - Stand Inside Your Love

Even though I’ve heard this song literally hundreds of times, I’ve never actually listened to the lyrics before. I’ve just realized it describes my situation perfectly and I want to have it at my wedding someday in some capacity. (Unfortunately Billy Corgan can be a little difficult to understand at times so it may have to be a multimedia presentation of some sort so people can see the lyrics.)

You and me
Meant to be
Immutable
Impossible

It’s destiny
Pure lunacy
Incalculable
Insufferable

But for the last time
You’re everything that I want and ask for
You’re all that I’d dreamed
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love
Protected and the lover of

A pure soul and beautiful you
Don’t understand
Don’t feel me now
I will breathe
For the both of us
Travel the world
Traverse the skies
Your home is here
Within my heart

And for the first time
I feel as though I am reborn
In my mind
Recast as child and mystic sage
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love

And for the first time
I’m telling you how much I need and bleed for
Your every move and waking sound
In my time
I’ll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
You’re mine forever now
Who wouldn’t be the one you love and live for
Who wouldn’t stand inside your love and die for
Who wouldn’t be the one you love
