I can’t believe how lucky I am to have found you. I found the one human being who loves all of me…even the parts that are hard to love…. even when I don’t love myself. Now that I have found you sweetheart, I never want to let you go. I will love you with everything I’ve got and when I’ve got nothing….i will do everything I can to find enough to hold you steadfast and strong. You are my soulmate, best friend, lover and now…my wife. I will always love you ❤️
