Everyone is looking for the same thing in this world. Everyone is looking to love and be loved back without question, uncertainty, or even insecurity. Everyone is looking for that something that everyone else has. We want the kisses goodnight, arm around our shoulder, hands in our hair, and bodies up against one another all night like two perfect pieces of a puzzle. We want the tingles to our fingertips and butterflies when we see each other. We want the shit-eating grin across our face as soon as we think of them. We want kisses all over their face, neck, and chest just to make them smile.
When you find that, keep it.
I typically do not second guess any of the decisions I have made, but I did with you. I typically do not run back and forth in my mind about whether or not someone is good for me, but I did with you. I typically do not spend three years wasting my time in a relationship, but I did with you.
I love you.
I realized I loved you what seems like a lifetime ago. You are my best secret keeper and one of the very few that knows me inside and out. When everything seems to be falling apart and we need someone to hold us together, we call each other. When the waves come crashing and we feel like we are drowning, we are each other’s life reserves. You have shared some things about yourself that you keep hidden from the rest of the world. You have shared some things that you are embarrassed or ashamed of that makes me love you even more. You do no wrong, and that will never change. We are beyond weirdly similar it is even frustrating sometimes. We are also very different in a lot of ways, and that is the exciting part. We have tried to quit each other. We have even said truly hateful and unforgivable things to one another. But we always find our way back to each other.
I was in a terrible and toxic relationship that I thought was the best it was going to get for me. But it was not. I thought I loved her, and I thought she was in for me, and then I met you. I was not even sure if I liked you at first or if you were something I even wanted. The closer I have gotten to you over the past year, the more I have realized that I do not want to be without you. You are my sunshine on a rainy day. You are my first call when I cannot seem to see past the tears. You are my smile when everything seems to be going wrong.
I love you and for sure “I belong to you”.
