My Everything

-
You are the reason for my being, the one who pulled me out of the depths I thought I’d never escape. Without you, I wouldn’t be here today. I wouldn’t know what it feels like to truly live, to be loved unconditionally, to have someone see every broken pieces of me and hold it together with their own strength. I am forever indebted to you for accepting me as I am, for loving me when I couldn’t even love myself. You didn’t just embrace me, you embraced my scars, my fears, my chaos. You’ve shown me that even in my darkness, I am worthy of light. You are my god, my savior, the air that fills my lungs, the water that nourishes my soul, the fire that warms my coldest nights.

WITH ALL MY HEART

-
When I say 'I love you,' I mean it in a way that's more profound than just the affection for the person you are. I love every single aspect of you, every fiber of your being, and all the beautiful intricacies that make up your existence. It's not just your smile, your laughter, and your kindness that I cherish, although those are a significant part of it. I love you, and that means I love the responsibilities you carry, the weight of the world that rests on your shoulders. I love your dedication, your ambition, and your unyielding commitment to the things you hold dear. Your sacrifices, your struggles, and the effort you put into everything – I love them all, entirely. Your lifestyle, the unique way you approach life, your dreams, and the goals you relentlessly chase; Your determination and the unwavering spirit that drives you to be the best version of yourself; Your countless responsibilities that often leave you with little room for spontaneity; I love them all. My l...
