There are things in our lives that sometimes we do not understand the reason for. I was wondering why my life was like that. I had to wait for such a long time in order to be able to be with the person that I love. Kaory was one of the reasons why my life changed in a different way. I was so stubborn. I did not like many things, but having her in my life, everything just changed. Though I’m still wondering why my life with her can not be a little different. I just wish everything could happen the way we want.  People say that love is patient and love is kind. I think patience is one of the things I need in my life in order to persevere in what I want to have. I will be patient as long as it takes in order to be with her. 

 Everything started on a beautiful Saturday evening, with a beautiful sunset. I was about to leave church and head to my house. Then all of a sudden, Kaory started talking to me. “Hey John, you wanna watch a movie tonight?” she asked.Her hands were shaking and her voice was not the same. My heart was beating so fast, and my whole body was shaking at the same time. “Sure, it’ll be a pleasure!” I replied. “So do you wanna meat at my house at 8pm?” she asked. With a normal voice and loud.  “Sure I’ll be there!” I said. After all, I was still shaking. I didn’t know if it was because I talked to her or because I knew that her parents were going to be there. Her parents are strict with her, they protect her so much. I can understand that our parents want the best for us. I’m okay with not telling them, but I wish I could, so that way I could spend my life with her. I started talking to her and all of a sudden I found out that she liked me as well. “I fell in love since the day I first met you,” I said softly. I did not want to sound to obvious that I was so in love with her, but something came to my mind and heart. “I’ll be the warrior to fight for our love; we’ll fly together, fly higher than a dove. I’ll be your wall and shield you from danger; you’ll be the queen in the kingdom of my heart; and then I’ll be the king, so we’ll never be apart,” I told her softly . 

Life is not always perfect. Life is full of many things, and when we are not ready, it can affect us in a bad way. But at the same time, life is full of blessings. One of the problems that Kaory and I had was telling her parents. We always had to say that we were friends and nothing else, we always had to invite more friends, we did not have a chance to be by ourselves. Hiding a relationship is not that easy, it takes time and courage. I have learned that love can do many things, and when it's true love, it is even more stronger. Love is not something that we look for; love find us most of the time. Love is like a spark in a dark room; if we let it grow it can illuminate the whole room, but if we stop it the whole room will be dark without a light. 

Decisions are hard to make. Most of the time we do not know the consequences that our decisions might have. We did not know what to do. We did not want to hide our feelings all the time, but at the same time we did not want to tell her parents. Time went by fast, and we still do not know what to do. Time is like water in our hands; we can not stop it. We can not change our past, or even change our future. I wish I could tell her parents what I feel for her, but I am afraid of doing it because I might not see her ever again. 

Being with her is the most beautiful thing. When I am close to her I feel complete. Her arms are like walls that protect me and keep me warm. Her hands are so soft like a sponge. Her voice is beautiful. When I hear her voice, it is like a melody to my ears. Her lips are even sweeter than sugar. Her hair is like a cookie fresh out of the oven with a wonderful smell. I would never like to lose her; my life is perfect because she’s part of it, and even though things might not be easy for us, our love is strong and whatever it takes we will fight together in order to be together for the rest of our lives.
