Your side is where I belong,

♡ and my hand was made to hold yours ♡

You're my entire world.

When I hold you in my arms, everything falls into place.

The way your chest rises and falls with every breath - how your shoulders ebb and flow, how your hair gently drifts across your collar like the evening tide..
The earth stops spinning for a moment and for a little bit, the taste of metal disappears from the back of my mouth and the tears stop falling for a while.

I know that we'll be alright in the end.

I get reminded of that every time that you bless me with the opportunity to spend another moment with you.

..hey.
Did you know that I love you?

If you didn't (which you definitely did), now you do!

I love you. I always will. I always have.

..so.
Please don't be sad when I go. Even when I'm not here to tell you..

I will be waiting for you.

I won't be there to hold your hand when you walk across the sands, but..
On our special day, in our special place - I'll be on the shore, ready to scoop you up when the tide carries you into my arms.

But you'll be able to walk over to my all by yourself by then, won't you?

People who love you

(a list)

  • The girl in bed next to you
  • writing this.
  • The girl waiting at the shoreline,
  • under a starry sky, missing her sleepy moon.
  • The girl who disappeared
  • and left you all alone
