butterflies Tuesday, September 28, 2004 mood:do you still remember the feeling of butterflies in your stomach? the moments when you had this feeling? i do. if i close my eyes, i'm suddenly transported back in time, and i'm able to relive those special moments over and over again. i see the first time he held my hand. i feel my giddiness and excitement! i see the first time i realized that i love him. i feel my fear and apprehension, then i feel my calm acceptance of what is. i see the first time he said "i love you." i feel his sincerity and my feeling of conviction that this was special. i see the first kiss we shared. i feel the softness of his lips and the gentleness of his arms. i see the day he introduced me to his parents. i feel his pride, as well as my own. i see the day he proposed. i feel his nervousness and anxiety, and i feel my heart beating fast. then i feel the joy! the elation! the bliss! there are also moments with tears, and feelings of hurt and pain. but there is also laughter. oh, lots of laughter. i open my eyes, and see him before me, with that special smile that i know is just for me. as i reach out and hold his hand, i feel the butterflies all over again, and i say a silent prayer of thanks. |
