Christmas🎄❤️

Babe❤️,

<<<<
k you for loving me quietly. For taking the time to remember how many sugars I take in my morning coffee, for knowing me well enough to notice when I am happy or sad, disappointed or overwhelmed. In the silence I notice everything you do — how you reach for my hand when I am having a nightmare, how you hold me a little tighter when I see something that softens me. Thank you for choosing me every single day. For fighting for what we have when difficulty hangs heavy in the air, for insisting that we are stronger together, capable of proving the odds wrong, filled with the potential to make even the hardships that will meet us into lessons, into seeds that grow us. Thank you for always being my voice of reason. For calming me down when doubt sinks into my skin, for building my restless a heart a safe place within your very own. Thank you for inspiring me to be a better person. For seeing gardens within me when I saw cemeteries. You have this beautiful way of reflecting your vision into my eyes, this talent for showing me the person I am and the person I have every opportunity to be. Thank you for being proud of me. Thank you for loving the parts of myself I used to hide, for cherishing the quirks and the twists that others always wanted to untie. Most importantly —  thank you for making an effort that stretches far beyond a simple bouquet of loud red roses. For making it your mission to make me smile; to fill my life with wonder. You and your ability to love so openly, and so deeply, despite what you have been through is stunning. With every new day you make me want to discover more and more ways to make you happy, you make me want to invent new words that could rightfully describe just how much I feel for you. You have taught me that love can thrive, that it can come back into your life and change you from the inside. You have taught me how courageous it is to simply have faith in the heart of another, and all I can say, with every inch of my patchwork soul, is thank you. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for how you love. Merry Christmas 🎄

Beautiful Trauma❤️

When I say I want you, I want all of you.

I want the happy you and I want the sad you. I want you when you are angry, and I want you when you are scared.

I want the broken pieces that you may carry within you. I don’t want to fix you, because those pieces are a part of you and they are what makes you you.

I want your fingers in mine and I want our toes to touch. I want your scars and I want your bruises. I want your hugs from behind and I want your kiss on my neck.

I want to feel safe in your presence, and I want you to feel safe in mine. I want you to know that as long as I am living, you will always have a piece of my

heart.

I want your family and I want to know your friends. I want to feel your 3 am cuddles and I want to feel you pull me close to your chest. I want to wake up next to you and smile at you because you are here.

I want to laugh with you and I want to cry with you. I want to know your fears and what excites you. I want to grow with you. I want every piece of you that makes you who you are.

I want to share my life with you – the good, the bad and the ugly.

Choosing you is a choice that comes naturally to my heart, and I will continue to

choose all of you, every moment of every day.
