Three years and still going strong..

Categorized Under: Anniversary, Events, Love 11 Commented

Wow. I can scarely believe it has been three years. Why is it, I wonder, that at times, the days seem to zoom by, and at other times, time seems to stand still and you impatiently wait for the days to go by?

Undoubtedly, the last few months have been the roughest part of our relationship. It is so easy to fall in love, and so very tough to beat the odds and keep it going. There are so many issues we had to and still need to overcome. I’m truly thankful to God he shoved us on the same path together, and from there on, albeit rather cautiously in the beginning, we marked out a path for ourselves.

The hardest part about an anniversary is coming up with an appropriate gift, I think. There are so many occasions in a year: Valentine’s Day in February, anniversary in May, our birthdays in September, the day we met in December. No dearth of days to celebrate for sure! The downside is coming up with novel ideas for each special event to make it memorable. So this time, I’ve attempted to write a poem of sorts. I think the last time I did this was to apologize (profusely) to Jagadish for some reason I cant quite recall now. It’s amatuerish, and tries too hard to rhyme in some places, but it’s straight from the heart.

And so dearest Jagadish, this is for you.

Only you can make me feel

Strong and cool

Dizzy and weak

Ooh, my heart and soul crazily reel.

Only you can lift me this high

Make me soar, make me fly

Yet light-headed and shy

Sighhhhh.

Only you are my fated half

Fortune, providence

Destiny and luck,

I love how you make me laugh!

Only you can love me like this

Tender and caring

Gentle and giving

You have shown me eternal bliss.

Only you make me complete

Whole and full

Total and absolute

Each and every time we meet.

Only you make love so true

Real, genuine

Sincere and trusting

So every day feels anew.

Only you, Only me

Together, inseparable

Indissoluble, undividable

You and me must be meant-to-be!

    Hi,

    Came upon this blog by chance. I can relate to your blog, I was forced to stay away from my husband for some visa issues.. life was hell, spent much time doing online chat… thanks to Yahoo and MSN we srvived. It’s very hard to have LDR, especially at the begining of a relationship, because you don’t know each other. Kudos to you guys for surviving it!

    Archana, your poem is soooo touching and sounds so true! One can feel your love pouring forth from your heart. I’m so happy that you are you and you are his!

    Wishing you both the very best in life!
