To My Love

My love,
I just want to take a moment to say how proud I am of you, for the way you’ve grown into yourself.
For the way you’ve been becoming someone kinder, stronger, more thoughtful with each passing day.
The person you’re becoming is you, the true you.
It’s the person that I held so strongly on to for years.
I could always see past the hard exterior you had put up around yourself.
I see you, even when you think no one’s noticing.
I see the way you handle hard days, the way you care deeply, the way you try, even when it’s difficult.
I have always loved you, every step of the way you took to get here.
You’re not the same person you were when we first met, because you are finally letting the real you shine.
Growth like yours is gentle, and full of heart.
You’ve become the someone I have been reaching to for so long.
You’re making my dreams and all my wishes finally come true.
I used to believe that I would never have what I always wanted, and here you finally are, my love.
I hope you know how much I believe in you.
I’m proud of who you are and all you’re still becoming.
It feels like a dream, truly feels like I’m in heaven with you.
I wouldn’t have wanted life in any other way, this is exactly what I wanted.
If anything were to happen, I am so lucky and truly blessed that I got to experience this at least now.
But I hope to live a long, full, and loving rest of my life with you, however long that may be.
What we have is infinite, it will have always existed, forever.
One day, our love will nourish the Earth, and we will become it.
Through that, we are eternal, and always connected, always together.
In the large and grand scheme of all that it exists, with human action meaning little…
I hope you know you mean a lot, to me, and my world.
You elicit me, you make me feel.
You give and gave me reason.
You are why I feel alive, you are my drive.
You are why I am living and not surviving. You are so beautiful. 

I love you, always, and infinitely.
