here_we_are
Bizzar these are the words you used to say to me, all those years ago. Every time there was a new admission, a hint at the way we felt.

"well, here we are."

i remember reading those words over and over again. 10 years ago. 7 years ago. 5 years ago. 2 years ago.

each time getting just a bit braver. from dancing around the words. getting braver year by year. saying just a little bit more.

it's been a year since those 3 familiar words changed. where once, across my screen, rested "here we are", now lays "i love you".

"i miss you"

though the words have changed, the feeling remains the same.

because we both know, that all those years you spent typing "here we are", you really meant "i love you".

i hope i never forget the feeling of reading those words the first time. i hope i never grow less appreciative of our journey. the battle we fought to be able to say those words. to each other. in person.

even in our distance, there with you is where my heart will always sleep the soundest. and i never feel like i can accurately express just how deeply i love you. how lost i would be without you. how critical your presence has been to my existence. to my journey. to my self discovery.

you helped me find me. you held my hand and guided me through hell. smiled at me as we reached the other side.

i am my best me because you are you.
