## View of each other

> I love sleeping with her because even though we are away, I get to see her in my dreams, fulfilling every bit of my life. I see our sharing our lives and weaving our beautiful future. My dreams make my belief in 'us' stronger. Even when a million people surround me, my heart seeks Cade's presence. It waits to reach out to you and be in her company. She has captured my heart. I cannot spend a minute away from her. We are meant to be together, have a family, and grow old together. Our lives would be perfect, and I wish to spend every day making her feel loved and cared for. I cross my heart and promise to give Cade all that I have got to make her life as beautiful as mine is with her presence. Cade has added meaning to my existence. Cade's compassionate nature and her constant care for me have made me fall in love with her even more. Cade is the kindest soul I know, and I feel fortunate to be with her. She is my true and only asset. Seeing her hurt is the most difficult thing for me. I want to ensure that I am the reason Cade is happy and be her comfort partner when she has had a rough day.
