Could it be?

Could it be? Could it really truly be?

As night falls and my mind begins to roam, chewing over thoughts and hopes, aspirations and dreams, I cannot help but wonder...Could this really be? Everything that I have ever wanted to feel, everything that I have ever longed to have, is here. No matter how sad, upset, depressed or unsettled I am, one thought comes to mind, and I no longer hurt. He makes me feel real again, no longer just a fleck of dust floating through sunlit shadows. The future no longer looks bleak and intimidating.

It's nice being able to feel, to actually sense and taste and breathe the day-to-day happenings, instead of closing myself to them for fear of what they hold. To wake up, and within a matter of milliseconds, crack a little smile, because what I fell asleep thinking about, I got the pleasure of waking up to as well. Life may not always be candy canes and lollipops, but even when it's at its "worst", I think of that one special thing, and he is sweet enough to make the bitterness disappear...
