Letters For Her

Recently was our one year anniversary, and I just wanted to say that I love you and appreciate you being in my life. You are the most important person to me and I am so lucky to be able to call you mine. I remember the first time I saw you, and I couldn’t believe just how beautiful you were, and still are. By this, I mean your personality - your sense of humour, your intelligence and how easily you can express yourself. In this way we’re very different, while you have no trouble in setting your heart on your sleeve, I have always found it particularly difficult. But you made me feel safe and happy, and that helped me to accept myself and accept that there will be bumps in the road, but it just makes the road trip that much more interesting. I fell so hard for you, and thank God you caught me. Happy anniversary honey. I love you.

I wish I could just wrap my arms around you and tell you everything will be okay in the end. I wish I could hold you until the tears stop filling up your darkest hours. I wish you could just believe me when l tell you how much I care for you and that I’m not going to run away, like everyone else. Because I am not everyone else. Because I love you.

The past 11 months have flown by, and I still remember our first conversation: it was care free and we were happy. I remember the first time I fell in love with your smile and the sparkle in your eye: I remember how you were, and still are the most lovable person I know, who gives everything to the people you love, even if it leaves you with nothing. You can find value and beauty in the darkest of things and you bring happiness to my life. I have no idea how I coped before you, but what I do know, is that I won’t be able to stand day not knowing you, or caring for you.

But most of all, I don’t think I could ever stand a day not loving you.

I know you’ve been snowed under with assignments and homework and tests and stuff so I thought I should spill my love for you and tell you how amazing you are… but you already know that. So instead, I want you to know that even if this week a flying dinosaur swoops down and drops you off in Africa, at least you’ll get a good tan and you can see some elephants. No this is not random, it’s to tell you that no matter how bad a situation can get, there’s always a plus! And who doesn’t like a freaking amazing tan? I love you.

To the one I love,:

I just want to see you
When you’re all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can’t escape
I love you ‘till the end

I just want to tell you nothing
You don’t want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don’t you just take me
Where I’ve never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you ‘till the end

I just want to be there
When we’re caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on its cloak
I’m lost for words don’t tell me
All I can say
I love you ‘till the end

So you don’t actually know that this blog exists… I think I’m going to give you the link soon. I hope you like it. I’m sort of nervous as to what your reaction will be. But whatever you say or think, I love you.

Recently, I’ve been busy with stuff like school and socialising, meeting up with old friends, shopping and work - I’ve also got to view some universities, work some more and everything like that, and I know I haven’t made much time as I normally do for you. I just want you to know that I love and appreciate you and I apologize if it seems like we don’t talk often enough any more. I really don’t know what I’d do without you. I love you.

You’re the best thing that ever happened to me. I love you.

So I think it’s time to come clean. I have never felt this way about any other person in my life. Ever. I know it sounds cliché, but you are literally the first thing I think of when I wake and the last thing I think of before I sleep. You have taken my heart with both hands, and a tight grip. And that scares the hell out of me. I’ve been with you now for almost 5 months and I still stop and just think about the fact that if you weren’t here any more, it would most certainly break me. Honestly, if I had known you would have this effect on me when I first met you, I would have run a mile in the direction of fear because I have never truly cared and loved someone the way I care and love you. Today, you told me of a nightmare you had about everything and everyone you love, fading away. I didn’t know how to fix it, to make it go away, but what I did know is that I wanted to hug you, and protect you, so the all the evil in the world would have to get through me before it even tried to touch you. Please don’t ever leave. I love you.

So, I’m on Skype to you right now, and all I can think about is how beautiful you look today. I mean come on, seriously?! How did I get so lucky? Just umph. I love you.

So I know there’s this song you like and I know that it helps you to fall asleep at night. And I’m trying to learn it on the guitar and it is proving very difficult considering I’ve only played for 2 years and my voice isn’t particularly amazing. But I thought it be cute to sing it to you one time - so that’s what I’m going to do. I love you.

I want the weather to be freezing temperatures, so that it gives me every excuse to hold you in my arms, to keep you warm. I have cold hands, so maybe you could hold them close to your heart to heat them? Because I’ve never met someone so warm hearted and as kind as you. I’m so lucky to have you in my life. I love you.

I haven’t posted in a while because I hope you already know how much I love you. Not only are you my girlfriend, you are my best friend; my soul mate. You’re the first person I want to tell my news to - good or bad. You’re the first person I go to when I need comfort, a cuddle and a kiss. You make me smile, sometimes even when you can’t quite smile yourself and I hope I make you feel the same way too, because you deserve it, and so much more. I love you.

There seems to be a running pattern in my life. I let my guard down and invite someone into my life. I get closer to them then I push them away because I get scared of the commitment to them, in case they leave me or hurt me, as people have left just too many times before. If I push you away, please stop me, and don’t let go because I need you in my life and I care about you so much and I’ll do everything in my power to make you happy; just don’t let go, no matter what and I promise I’ll try to do the same. I love you.

You came back to me last night and it was amazing. You’re leaving me again for another week. I’ve got a feeling you’re going to break my heart one day. But even still, I love you.

In French, you don’t say ‘I miss you’. Instead you say ‘tu me manques’ which exactly translates as ‘you are missing from me’. I love that. You are missing from me; you are a part of me, essential to my being and I cannot function without you. In French, you also say ‘Je suis perdu sans toi et je t’aimerai toujours’ - I am lost without you and I will always love you.

I am an adrenaline junkie. I always pick the more risky or dangerous option. I walk home alone from a party in the rough side of town just to scare myself, or cut through the park at night just to scare myself. I even get a kick out of eating yoghurt one day out of date. But since I met you, I haven’t done any of these things. This is because I know that if I get into trouble, you may disappear from me and I don’t think I can go a day without you in my life from this point on. I love you.

You left this morning, and I cried. I know it’s just until Friday, but I cried. I hid my tears from you though because I wanted you to go so you can relax and just get away from shit for a while. it’s been almost 14 hours since I last spoke to you and in the past 2 months, I have never gone that long without hearing your voice, or reading fresh texts. I have no idea how I’m going to cope with you gone. I’m going to make a list to try to keep myself busy so my brain might rest from you swimming around in it non-stop. I highly doubt it’ll work, but it’s worth a try? I miss you so much babe. I love you.

So, you’re going on vacation for a whole week tomorrow, and the only means of keeping in touch is via text, and even then, it depends on whether you have signal in the mountains. I will miss you so much and everyday that passes, I will be counting down the days until I see you again. I cannot go a day without talking to you, never mind a week so if I get upset or cry before you go, I apologize. I apologize that I am so hung over you that all I want to do is be with you and when you’re gone, I don’t feel like a full person. You are the other half of me, you carry my soul and my heart, and when you’re so far away, it feels like I may never get you back. And it hurts. I know it is selfish because I want you to be happy and you deserve a break away from everything, so I wish you the best time. But please, after, come back to me. I love you.

Last night I went to a friend’s house party. All around me, I could couple after couple and I couldn’t help but wish that you were here beside me, so that I can just be with you and so other people can comment about how cute we are together, just like they did to other couples. I drank last night. I drank so that maybe my imagination could get the better of me and I could perhaps see you, see a vision of us and maybe even make you turn up on the doorstep and find me and we can party together. Drink together. Be cute together. Just be us. Together. I love you.
