Love Letter



I realize that some people think that Michael and I are crazy - we didn't date each other very long before we got married.  I had been married and hurt before, he had been hurt before. Somehow, after only a few short weeks, we knew that we had something special and different.  I knew that I loved him and didn't want to live without him.

About a month after we first started dating, I heard the song "Halo" by Beyonce for the first time.  This song describes so well how I feel about Michael.  Every time I hear this song, it makes me smile.  Not long after I heard it that first time, I went and bought the CD, copied the lyrics, and composed an e-mail to Michael.  I looked at that send button for a while before I actually sent the e-mail.  I e-mailed these lyrics to my then-future husband, not sure exactly what the future would hold.

We have now been married for almost 7 weeks.  I could not love anyone more.

Halo:

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound

I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
