So yesterday night after dinner down Marina Bay, we strolled the bank of Singapore River. Pretty skyline across Sheares Bridge, lovely night breeze and the swishing sounds of gentle waves lapping the rocks. I was basking in your presence.
We sat in the dark, spoke of the people we knew, experiences past and present, and of lessons learnt. My fortress crumbled as I laid my heart bare, telling you what I never had courage to reveal to anyone else. I was so at ease with you.
It was almost an hour later when you popped the question. We made the pact incorporating each other into our lives. And there were two less lonely people in the world.
Last night, I rested my head on your shoulder. You said to me that you would remember this moment forever. How so very much I had wanted then to thank you for all that you did -- instilling in me that perfection isn't everything and cutting short my self-imposed misery. I thought my soul was long gone, yet miraculously you managed to revive it. There is so much love pulsating within. And so so much I want to give to you.
