| With my fingertips I trace on your bare skin all of the things I'd like to say but cannot speak. You mean everything. There are not quite words enough to tell you all the things that you've become for me.  It's just nuts how many things changed. Looking back at everything that has been going on this last school year, it's extremely difficult to even remember how life was before.
Life just keeps on going. Doesn't slow down for anyone.

I will love you as a drawer loves a compartment, and as a secret compartment loves a secret, and as a secret loves to make a person gasp, and as a gasping person loves a glass of brandy, and as a glass of brandy loves to shatter on the floor, and as the noise of glass shattering loves to make everyone gasp, and as someone else gasping loves a nearby desk to lean against, even if leaning against it presses a lever that loves to open a drawer and reveal a secret compartment. I will love you with all such compartments are opened and discovered, and until all secrets have gone gasping into the world. I will love you until all the codes and hearts have been broken and until every anagram and egg have been unscrambled.

| Maybe love, too, is beautiful because it has a wildness that cannot be tamed. I don't know.
All I know is that, that passion can take you up like a house of cards in a tornado leaving destruction in its wake. Or it can let you along because you have build a stone wall against it, set out the armed guards to keep it from touching you.
The real trick is to let it in, but to hold on. To understand that the heart is as vast and wide as the universe, but that we come to know it best from here; this place of gravity and stability, where our feet can still touch the ground.

| Tough times don't last, but tough people do. Fuck your past, but don't let it fuck you.  I feel like I'm doing a pretty damn good job at keeping my cool. Shit happens, I'm just riding the waves.
I'll get to where I need to be. For now, I'm just enjoying the scenery. |

| To be happy, sometimes you have to forget what's gone, appreciate what still remains, and look forward to what's coming next  I can't remember a time when I was this happy. I'm hoping, this time, it lasts for a very long time. |
