What is your name : Brandy Smith
Who do you want the poem written for: Jon Williams
Why do you want the poem written: Allen, I had you write a poem for Jon and I, for Valentine's Day last year. At the time i had you write the poem Jon and I were only boyfriend and girlfriend, of three years ,not yet engaged or married. Much to my surprise for Valentine's Day I received not only diamond earings to wear on our wedding day, but a beautiful engagement ring. The engagement took place at Ruby Tuesdays, with a crowd of waitresses and other couples in love. The most memorable couple was the elderly couple celebrating their many years together, sitting accross the aisle from us. I remember telling Jon when he gave me the earrings at dinner that "He blew me away" and his reply was simply " Then this is really going to blow you away", and with that he got down on one knee and proposed to me. However the next couple months took a turn for the worse.I was going through a hard time, I lost my grandfather to Alzheimers, and also learned that my parents, married for 34 years, were having marrital problems, and were considering divorce. Instead of embracing Jon and my relationship, I pushed him away and begin to knit pick my own relationship. Many issues that if I had truly worked hard on, as well as Jon, we could've resolved, led to my decision to give up on our relationship, this happened on August 3rd, of this year. We were supposed to get married on September 24, 2005. Their were many mixed emotions between Jon and I at this time, mostly hurt. Jon really struggled to accept that I was gone, and after begging and pleading to get back into my life, his emotions turned to anger. I on the other hand told myself to move on. I met a guy and ended up spending most of the next 2 months with him, trying to make myself forget about Jon. Although knowing the entire time that Jon is really who I wanted to be with. Some very hurtful things were said by Jon when he found out about myself and this other guy, things that i deserved but never expected to hear Jon say. However on September 30th, Jon and I decided to meet up to talk face to face, for the first time, since the big break up. Once we were face to face neither Jon nor myself could honestly tell ourselves that we didn't want to make it work. Jon and I have a lot of talking and problem solving to do, but through the entire thing neither one of us ever forgot how much we loved the other. The next couple of months are going to be a long road for Jon and I, I am sure, however I know we can do it. Jon and I both believe that us breaking up and truly being a part for 2 months, made us realize just how special the other is to us. I guess everyone falls off the track from time to time, we just needed to get back on track. There is no doubt in my mind Jon is who I want to spend the rest of my life with, and I believe we will do exactly that. The wedding for now is going to be put off, to allow Jon and I to reconnect, and be the couple that we really want to be.
What are the key messages you would like to send: *** I would like Jon to know how much I love him and that even though the road ahead may be rough, we will make it, together.
Do you have any funny, sad, happy, embarrassing or otherwise memorable moments that you would like to share: Please include the break up in the poem, as it has became a very important part of our relationship.
| I'll never forget last Valentine's Day, if I recall, it was quite a poetic time, and you surprised me in Ruby Tuesdays, when I discovered the reasons in my rhyme. Diamond earrings, a beautiful ring, I felt blessed by the heavens above, we were surrounded by a crowd of waitresses, I'll never forget the elderly couple (still so in love). I remember telling you that you "blew me away", then the gale really started, with you on bended knee, of course, I happily and gladly said "yes", because you'd made my world a great place to be. However, the next few months took a turn for the worse, and I was going through a dreadful patch, not only had I'd lost my grandfather to Alzheimer's, I'd heard that my parents weren't quite the perfect match. Instead of embracing you and our relationship, I began to knit pick and pushed you away, and I let many issues get the better of us, and September 24, 2005 became, just another day. There were many mixed emotions between us then, and we spent scrappy moments scrapping in the dirt, you struggled to accept the fact that I had gone, and of course, you were angry and so very hurt. And so I spent two months on another planet, but all the time, I wanted to be back here on Earth, because I knew all along that I loved you, I knew all along, exactly what your love was really worth. Again, quite naturally, you said some hurtful things, but I know that was only the rage inside of you, and I know the next few months will be hard for us both, and Jon, I'm sorry, for what I've put you through. I guess everyone falls off the track from time to time, and certainly, many rights can never undo the wrong, but there is no doubt that we love each other, and I guess we've always known it - all along. |
