Nathan.
I almost lost you, love of mine.
Like a feather in the breeze, you were almost gone.
The time without you was an empty time,
I knew surely- I'd never move on.
I couldn't bear to think of how to forget,
when it wasn't our choices that forced us apart.
It was the voices of others- their ideas set,
convinced that I wasn't good for your heart.
Finally though- the voices stopped,
allowed us a reunion- as sweet as can be.
Now you and I are back together,
and you are the world to me.
Those days, so recent, will soon be but a bitter memory,
although in honesty they brought me to the brink.
I know our future's waiting, so much we can't forsee,
but as long as you're with me I can't wait for it to begin.
So Nathan; you're my future,you help erase my past.
Nathan; you're my first love and you will be my last.
