I knew I loved You, before I met You...

A year ago from now
You were just a thought

Between Yes and No

My mind had fought

And one fine day 

I changed my view

And that was the day

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

The first time I saw you

You were just a tiny cell

Point one eight centimeters

The doctor would tell

But from that moment 

Believe me its true

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

Time passed fast 

Sonography again 

I saw your blue outline 

And was amazed right then

I controlled my tears 

And hid my feelings too

But trust me when I tell you

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

Preparations begin

For your to-be-parents

No compromises

And lots of presents

We wanted it all

Guessing between pink and blue

And No matter what you are

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

The more you kicked her

The more she'd smile

We both are so excited

You are just weeks away and a while

Every night the same dream

Every day the same talk

Your poor mom 

Could hardly walk

Yet surprisingly time just flew

Yes, my dear

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

The day isn't far

When I'll get that call

That your arrival is in moments

How will we manage it all?

But no effort will be spared

For the best, when you're due

Because by now you'd know

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

Will you have your mothers smile?

Or your fathers eyes?

It really doesn't matter

Because you'll be 

The most beautiful child

Every parent thinks 

Theirs is the best

And we are no different from the rest

Yes, little one

We'd think that way too

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

They say the first few months 

Are a big fright

You'll cry for various reasons

Keeping us up all night

But we will keep you clean

Everytime you pee and poo

And hug you with care because

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

I'm waiting for the day

When you'll stand and steps you will take

But remember whats more important is,

To Stand...by the decisions you make

And that's one of the learnings

I wish you would knew

Because I knew I loved you 
Before I met you

Word by Word

You will learn the knack 

And soon you will recite 

The poetry of Jill and Jack

But in life, my dear 

Choose your words well

Because that's something 

You just can't take back

And even if you err

We will forgive you

Because I knew I loved you

Before I met you

The neighborhood and playschool

Friends will just add

Life will go on

Beyond just Mom and Dad

And remember always

Be a 'real friend' that's true

And this I say because

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Trips to the park

And trips to the zoo

Be kind to everyone

People and Animals too

The character of a person

Is judged every moment

Through actions and words

Have intentions well meant

And though it sounds tough

Its just my point of view

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Be sporty, be healthy

A good spirit have too

But there will be days

When God forbid, you will have a flu

Fear not, We will care

and treat you from the blue

You will be my priority because 

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

School and College

There's so much they will teach

But its the learnings of life

That will make you rich

And some days you will spot me

At the gate waiting for you

I promise you my child

Because I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Your Demands. Your Desires

Toys, Clothes , University of Purdue
Be content with what you have 

Because of a quote that's true

Branded Footwear is of no use

For the man

With no legs for a shoe

Simple truth of life...

Because I knew I loved you
Before I met you

Your past will seem better

And tomorrow might seem  brighter

But the present is a gift

And nothings more mightier

'Live every moment'

May sound a little cliche

But today is the day when

You can fulfill you wishes

I'm ending this para

With words and a cue

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

We will grow older

And you will grow wiser

You might get a feeling 

That your friend's are nicer

I fear that day 

Would it ever come true

But even for that day 

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Travel the world

Be rich by your eyes

Learn cultures, see landscapes

See lows, see highs

But some things are more important

Than just seeing more

Learn to discover

and Learn to explore

Once in a while

Kiss the morning dew

And remember my words 

I knew I loved you 

Before I met you

Fall in love

Give more than you take

Relationships are beautiful

Listen... before assumptions you'll make

A wonderful partner

Will complete you all new

And remember

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Children you will have

Proud Grandparents we will be

Dream for them like we dreamed for you

and a wonderful parent I foresee

Give them a foundation 

On beliefs and value

Love is the only thing that's true

Because I loved you

Before I met you

Will you live apart?

Will you stay with us?

I wish you would never let go 

Of the love and the trust

Older and weaker

Someday we will turn too

But even that day

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Memories and Regrets

Through all life's test

You might not think

Of me as the best

Still theres something 

I want to tell you

I always want to be

The man you'd look up to

My little child

I knew I loved you

Before I met you

Nothings lasts forever

One day I will be gone

Remember my words

No need to mourn

We will watch you from above

No, we won't ever leave you.

Because Ill never tire of saying this

I knew I loved you

Before I met you....
