A letter to YOU at 5.47am in a Thursday morning. Of a tedious week. After a sleepless night. 2 lattes. Few fried nuggets and a heavy dose of pop-music.
Dear "you know who you are",
It took me just 17 days and a few mid-night chats to fall in love with you.
It took me a month to respond to your lips.
It took me a year to know that you are in love.
It took me a year and a half to see my home in your eyes.
It took me a year and six months to realise I can wake up for you and make breakfast and coffee.
It took me a year and seven months to understand that I can't sleep sound without hearing you snoring.
It took me a year and eight months to learn that the butterflies in my heart still flutter bad every time we meet.
It took me a year and nine months to believe that I could trust everything I distrusted just to make you happy.
It took me a year and ten months to spot myself washing your tee-shirts and pressing them.
It took me a year and eleven months to know that I could burn my finger while cooking your favorite dish.
It took me two years to know that probably you are where I need to finally stop.
It took me two and a half to know that loving someone was not all that easy.
But it took me just a split of a second to realise today-
I am still beautiful because you loved me. The birds still sing because you sang to me. The roads still lead to the destinations because you have been the destiny. The coffees still taste alright because its with your name I still start my mornings. The prayers still reach my God because you instilled Faith in me. I still wake up, breathe and live it up alright because you made life happen to me.
Yours,
2 years and 8 months old relationship.
