when i first met him, i was only 16.
we were kids. we were so young.
we didn't know a thing.
yet he wrapped himself around my heart. my dreams. my thoughts. my every wish.
~
we fell in love
and
our love blossomed. and grew.
today
he is the light in everything i do.
in everything i see. in everything i touch. in everything i imagine.
~
his light helps me to grow in directions that i never knew existed.
to believe in things i think are impossible.
to understand what doesn't make sense.
to accept myself.
he's the only person who ever really sees me for who i truly am
{faults and all}
and
never asks me to be anything but that.
we have woven ourselves around each other.
tightly.
leaving room to breathe. to listen. to hear. to learn.
while
making room to grow.
not all of our days are filled with color. and that's okay.
we like the plain. the simple.
the bland. the monotone.
it works for us.
but
all of our days are filled with movement.
from laughter. from kids. from decisions that rock us a bit.
from new ideas. from new dreams. from new places.
but mostly
from a thirty year old {what we've created is beautiful, even when we stumble} love affair
that needs to be celebrated today.
~
to my love
happy valentines day
you are my world. my everything.
thank you
