So I decided to post some written stuff! I’ll probably only share the ones that I’ve read already, but I reserve the right to change that.
The first one I’ll share is the first one I wrote and the first one I read. It’s named after a girl, so the theme might be obvious. It’s several weeks old, no more fresh feelings but still feelings.

When we met I sat at your bedside for a week straight. Held your hand with my heart in an open palm. I’d say it were love at first sight, but…
Your mind was a brilliant light, calling to my own as it wandered through a crushing darkness. When we connected I felt myself come alive. More alive than I’d ever felt. I opened myself up to you and you received me with your own wide open arms. Within a month I expressed my love for you and felt that sweet wave of relief when you expressed the same back.
Our minds swirled and danced through the months and years, your passion lit my soul on fire and I felt myself burn for you in ways I never thought I could. I was your slave, your lover, your best friend, your very own personal person. I told you I was yours and you responded with the most tender kisses and that single word I longed to hear on your lips, “mine”.
You unlocked me with your loving words, always knowing the right things to say. You opened my eyes to worlds of possibilities. That brilliant light that is your mind guided my own into a shining reality I never thought I’d have the courage to find. Never even knew existed.
The years we’ve shared are irreplaceable and unmistakably the best they could have been for me, I hope they were for you too. You helped make me Me. You led me out of the darkness I’d never have escaped on my own and I’ll never be able to thank you enough for that…
You’re a thousand miles away…
Your life is a thousand miles away…
Neither of us know if it’ll ever be any closer…
All I have to give is myself and I would more than gladly give it but in this new reality my hand can’t transcend this all-too-physical distance between us.
I won’t be able to hold your hand as I venture into those worlds and this reality that you’ve helped me find. You’ll always have that piece of my heart and I’ll always dream of the day I would have gotten to feel your delicate fingers wrapped around mine. I hope you’ll be able to forgive me.
There’s no more darkness but this light might be bittersweet without you.
