I Believe In Love Lasting a Lifetime

I hope you don't mind I share some of mine. Tell me your interpretation...
The River
-Why do I write these words? It's a means of feeling close to you when we are parted, as when we are separated in time as well as distance.
I have come to realize how wealthy I am. The riches are so immense. That's how I feel about this love.
-Sometimes I feel we are running a race. Like the this fast flowing current we are caught up as it speeds towards the waterfall. Yet we pace together, never out distancing always moving and turning at the bend.
-The race continues. You know what I want. I feel you extend yourself reaching and pulling me to you. We're breathless as the river sweeps us on, escalating.
-We climb against the current to feel each others implosion. Not rushing down the Water Fall as it would mean a long climb back.
-Letting go with you is so easy now. I was afraid of you once. Of the unknown feelings you opened in me. I am no more. I didn't know where we were going and perhaps that is still the unanswered question.
-I don't know which side of the embankment we will land upon. It won’t matter. I know as long as I breathe you will be there with me.
