I'm so terrified because I've been here before- writing poems about boys who made me feel as if monarchs roamed throughout my body. And although it was beautiful, it was also fleeting and eventually they too migrated to a warmer being to avoid the cold. It's even more terrifying because it's not butterflies with you. It's home. I told you once, that as a child, my parents would take me on road trips and that the long road felt more like home to me than anything. And maybe that's because I've never been good at staying in one place. I craved the excitement of some place new. I craved exploring every inch of it until I knew it like the back of my hand. And more than anything, a part of me always felt as if no matter where I went something was missing and I craved more than anything to find that something. To find it and cherish it forever. But in all honestly, in you, I found the place that I've been searching my entire life for. I've never felt more alive than I do in your presence, but there's also this familiarity and comfort in your arms and the sound of your voice. I could tell you every detail about me inside and out until my voice goes about, but you get me in this way that I know I wouldn't have to because you look at me and I swear you already know the half of it. It's like we've met in another life and that's something I'm not even sure I believe in, but if we have- I swear we were one. Darling- You are and always will be my greatest adventure.
