My dearest Derick,

I must confess, there's something that I need to say,
And so with pen and paper, I'll try to find a way.
To tell you how I'm feeling, and how much you mean to me,
To speak the words I've hidden, for all the world to see.

It's like every day is brighter, every moment pure delight,
When I envision you beside me, holding me so tight.
You've brought a light into my life, that I never knew could be,
And in my heart, I know you're the one who's meant for me.

From the very start, I knew that you were special,
A kind, caring soul with a heart that's full.
Of love and laughter, of joy and peace,
Of everything that makes my heart feel complete.

I know that we've had our ups and downs, our share of trials and tears,
But through it all, I've felt you by my side, wiping away my fears.
And even when we're not together, I feel your presence near,
As if your love and tenderness will always keep me here.

You bring out the best in me, Derick, and I hope you know it's true,
Your kindness, your patience, your gentle ways, have all been like a soothing brew.
For all the hurt and pain of the past, I feel you've washed away,
And replaced it with pure goodness and passion, that makes my heart want to stay.

Like the morning sun that rises, bringing light and warmth anew,
That's how I feel about our love, and all that we've been through.
It's a never-ending journey, full of twists and turns and more,
But I know that with you beside me, we can brave any storm.

So I'll finally say it, with all my heart and soul,
I love you, Derick, more than you could ever know.
You've brought a joy into my life, unlike anything before,
And I can't wait to spend forever, loving you even more.
My heart beats faster at the thought of you,
And every moment spent with you feels new.
I cannot help but smile when you are near,
For in your presence, all my worries disappear.

Your eyes, they twinkle like the stars above,
And your smile, it fills my heart with love.
Your touch, it sets my soul ablaze,
And in your arms, I feel like I am in a daze.

I cannot imagine life without you,
For you are the one who makes my dreams come true.
Your love, it is the anchor that keeps me grounded,
And in your arms, I feel like I have found it.

I love the way you hold my hand,
And the way you make me feel so grand.
Your love, it is the light that guides my way,
And in your arms, I feel like I am home to stay.

I cherish every moment spent with you,
And every memory we create, so pure and true.
I cannot wait to spend forever by your side,
For with you, my heart and soul, they coincide.

So here's to us, my love, my heart, my soul,
Together we will conquer, we will reach our goal.
I love you more than words could ever say,
And in your arms, I know I am here to stay.
Yours always and forever,
E
