“That’s why I loved us. We’re free to be anything we wanted to be because together, anything felt possible. It can be a Tuesday evening stuck in the city, and you’d be like, “Let’s go somewhere our souls can breathe,” and my heart would be smiling with excitement because I’d be so game for it. You cracked me open from my hollow depressive shell for the light to escape and made me realize how this world is filled with so much wonder and awe and thrill, and I never felt that with anyone else. Together, we are an endless conversation of hopes and dreams and all of the strong, brilliant, and great people we can become. I’m a better person each day than I was yesterday, and that’s all because you made me feel genuinely cared for and supported, and I wish to do the same for you, my love. You are my brightest adventure and my happiest companion all my life.”
