My Love, Thank You For Loving Me

My love, thank you.

Thank you for being my best friend, my closest confidant, and my soulmate. With you, everything happens at the right timing at our own pace. Thank you for giving me all the time I need to be ready. You understand that I was scarred from my previous experiences and you never hold it against me. You enter my life with the intention to stay and till today, you treat me with the same adoration, respect, and love.

Thank you for thinking the world of me. With you, I am always good enough the way I am and you love me for me.

Thank you for accepting my imperfect flawed self. On the days that I felt unlovable, you’re around to reassure me of all the reasons why you do. My strength that motivates me in all that I do, my beauty that goes beyond skin deep, and my love for you that is deeper than anything I have known.

Thank you for the joy, the laughter, and the light.

When the burden gets too heavy to bear, the journey ahead stretches dismally, and the day gets dreary, you’re all that I depend on to get me through it. You’re the ray of hope that lifts me up from the darkest times. The greatest blessing that happens to me unexpectedly and altered the course of my life in the best way possible.

Thank you for giving me a love with full certainty that pushes away any inkling of doubt that this could work.

For once, I caught a glimpse of what the right relationship feels like. I wasn’t wary and guarded that love would fail me again. I wasn’t getting ahead of myself and bracing myself for the worse that this wouldn’t work. I wasn’t holding myself back in fear that you will bolt when I open my heart to you. I wasn’t drowning in my insecurity and uncertainty that I don’t deserve all the good things you do for me. I wasn’t trying to be someone I’m not in the hope of capturing your attention. I wasn’t afraid you would leave me even when I gave you countless reasons to.

With you, love just becomes so much simpler.

Your love is all encompassing and it doesn’t discriminate whether life is cherry or the circumstances are hard. You’re all too happy to celebrate the important successes in my life and you’re just as ready to dry my tears. You’re all that I wanted and I can’t begin to tell you how much you meant to me.

Thank you for loving me and I want to tell you that I love you too.

I love you for being so interested and attentive to what I say even when I rambled on the same story for the thousandth times. I love your kindness that never runs low for me, the magnitude of your affection, and your gentleness that is unlike anything that I see before. I love how unfaltering your commitment is to always give me the best you have. I love you for who you are and for coming into my life.

I love you so much and I promise you I will spend the rest of my life showing you just how much I do.
