A story

Two years ago?

Two and a half years ago.

We fought like identical storms.

You pushed me, and I pushed you further.

In one year everything changed, and I’ll never be more grateful for it.

You’re the only thing that makes me smile some days.

When you cry, my heart wrenches up to my throat and it feels like I’m dying with you.

Whenever someone says something against you, I will defend you.

I would end the world if it meant you and I would be able to stay together forever.

You’re the diamonds I hide in a locked box, and you’re the curtain the helps me hide when it’s too much.

You’re the first person I go to when I start to feel the dark creeping back in.

You’re the only person I let see what happens inside.

And I’m sorry at the same time.

I know that if I have problems.

We have problems.

I don’t want to hurt you, so I try to hide them.

We both hide them too well.

I would die a thousand times before I let someone hurt you.

You make my life worth everything, and I love you for it.

Everyday I think of you and my heart breaks knowing it’ll be months before I’ll be able to wrap my arms around you again.

But I’ll wait.

Because you might be the only thing in the world worth waiting for.
