Together, forever

THE PAST:

Thank you for making me feel a yearning I did not know existed within me. I don’t want to want you and yet it never subsides. I hope I feel better tomorrow. I don’t know how to forget how safe I felt with you, in your company. Our dates, our long drives, our car…The way our relationship progressed, the first day and the last…Why doesn’t it seem like the end? Why don’t I feel it’s over? Why do I still feel that you are still with me, always with me, no matter what happens? Why? Why Now?

It’s not fair the way my life has turned upside down when you left. Here I am watching a harmless comedy show on TV and suddenly I break down crying. Just because of the days when we used to watch it together. Or the way you called me up to tell me what is worth watching today. I love the sound of your laughter; I wish I could hear it again.

And the other time when you were drunk and you called me up. That was when you divulged your most well-kept secret – confessed your love for me. That day we were far yet connected to each other by blessed technology. As if I was right there with you. That day when you were about to sleep on the sofa and I reminded you not to.

Why are you doing this to us? We’re so good together, so happy, so complete.

 THE PRESENT:

MY HAPPY PLACE

My happy place underwent a radical shift once you came into my life. I am so happy that every place has become my happy place. Yesterday was another dream come true; we went for a long drive. It was filled with so much joy and bliss. The best moment was when you said and you truly meant ‘I have a lot of patience when it comes to you.’ Today when you have confessed your true feelings for me, it has become my happiest place. I am looking forward to our life together with so much excitement.

I feel lucky as we sit on the balcony of our home together with our family, talking and spending time with the most special people in the world. I am incredibly lucky that I am spending every waking day and night for the rest of my existence with you. We are really talking it out today…Happy things, sweet things, difficult things, our best moments, our dreams, our relationship, our journey so far. Our present and the great future we have together….forever.
