Our Unexpected Love By Taylor Clayborn Our love flourished out of thin air. When first meeting, our journey began. You opened the door to me my heart jumped.

We discussed our hopes and dreams. Together we clicked. There wasn’t an uneasy moment not even a stress of what I should say.

I sat at the edge of the bed, Shaking It was cold but your presence kept me warm.

…with a kiss goodnight. I fell asleep falling in love. I didn’t see it coming.

We spoke until the depths of the night. Your eyes smiling back at me. We lost track of time, enmeshed in conversation.

You are the man I dreamed of. I feel safe around you I feel loved. (I pray for you every night)
