A Fairy Tale

Before this moment;
Seconds felt like minutes,
Minutes like hours,
Hours like days,
Days like weeks,
Weeks like months,
Months like years,
And I waited for what
Seemed like an eternity for
This moment.

It is here this moment
And I am beside myself,
Never in my life have I been,
So overwhelmed with emotion,
Never more uncertain, never more sure,
This is fear undone, hope unbound,
Joy unspeakable and love unparalleled,
At long last I am yours and you are mine,
And I have loved you but never more than at,
This moment

After this moment;
when years seem like months,
Months like weeks,
Weeks like days,
Days like hours,
Hours like minutes,
And minutes like seconds,
We will reflect on how quickly time passes,
And how we would give anything to relive,
This moment.
