Someone Special

Something out of the ordinary
Meeting you
Seemed like all we did was laugh
And we clicked

I was always wondering
Would I meet your expectations
And then I decided
Leap of faith

From then on
Laughter and joy filled me
Smiling constantly till my cheeks ache
And waking up every morning seemed a little more fun

You filled me with all that you are
Witty and mischievous
Caring and wise
Weird and fun

Playing games for hours
Being the sore loser I am every time you won
Talking for hours
Getting to know you

It became like a part of me
Saying goodnight to you
Waiting for your good morning
And seeing you smile

Eyes are the most beautiful
Smile the most bright
Laughter the most contagious
Optimism the most supportive

I'm constantly afraid of caring you off with my imperfection
However it seems no matter what I throw at you
You always seem to find the right words 
Acceptance is your greatest gift

Totally different from the usual
Unexpectedly you sneaked in to my life
I'm glad that you decided too
Cause you're the best

Stormy Outlook

The weather always changes,
Sometimes its with us knowing;
While mostly its not,
I realized and did nothing to prepare.

Awhile ago my sky was blue,
The sun shone like a yellow gum drop;
It was a warm sunny day,
Thinking it'd last.

My sky grew dark,
The winds howling;
And then it happened,
Thunder crashing with a loud bang.

I knew a long storm was ahead,
It was filled with anger;
Hatred and lies,
The storm took over.

Everything fell out of place,
Promises forgotten;
True colors became very clear,
A battle had begun.

Clueless ,
Unable to come up with solutions;
Holding things together wasn't working,
Being swallowed by the rough weather.

Fighting hard,
Not wanting to lose out;
Awaiting for the storm to subside,
Searching for the hidden sun.

Alas I did,
I wouldn't say exactly it's the easiest path;
But with a umbrella of faith and a raincoat of love,
I've decided this battle is worth fighting for.

Believing the storm will subside,
Thunder and lighting will not frighten me;
Slowly but surely,
the weather will turn for the better.
