It Is A Dream I Have. (2012)

From 2012, this same day, though thankfully not the same situation nor person. Today is a better, better day, as will be the many, many tomorrows.

"She's not the only woman in the world.

I think of days that have not gone by, like the song says, probably even more than than days that have. And as wonderful as those past days have been - replete with scintillating discussions, deeply felt emotions shared and analyzed, sidesplitting laughter, even uncensored words and misunderstandings - I can only hope these experiences and more would be present in the future.

Like another song says, she's been with me now quite a long, long time and I feel fine. And yet we've not been together in person for almost all of that time, really only met each other twice. This doesn't diminish the daily desire to hear from her, know how she is, whether it's a well-deserved great day or even the worst day ever, at least since the last time it was the worst day ever, and also for me to be at ease in sharing how I am, though it's predictably the same old "fine" I always am. The truth is, I always feel better than fine just because it's her that I'm telling.

I could never ask her the question I would ask her in a heartbeat.

Regardless of our friendship, our history, our respect and love for each other, I somehow (probably more specifically than somehow) feel it would not be right to ask her the question, unfair to ask her, unfair to burden with such a thought, though I know I'm prepared to hear her answer either way. I feel I'm steering way off course now as I write this...what did I begin with?...

Oh yes. She's not the only woman in the world. But she's a woman who could come into my life a little more than she already has, and as she's already made such amazing impressions, I imagine quite positively and confidently she would be the only woman in my world."
