the love of one year


(*credits to SaylaMarz on Flickr for the picture*)


we are now one year and one day.
it was our one year yesterday.

did i hear you say long distance lesbian relationships don't work out?
think again.
one year one day. this is evidence enough.

she...
she makes me laugh. she really does. she makes me happy. she really does. when i'm with her, i laugh, and i laugh a lot. i laugh with her, i laugh at her, i laugh at myself. but the laughter is pure happiness. she makes me happy.

she...
she is the sunlight. i know that sounds lame, but it is true. she is the sunlight peeking out from a dark and dreary day. now, it is cheesy, but its so true. on days that i'm feeling down, on days where i feel like my life is going nowhere and it's all darkness, just a simple text from her, just talking to her, makes my day light up. she is the sunlight, and it is true.

she...
she encompasses my day and night and every breath i take. cheesy, but it's true, again. i think of her almost all the time. she is never far from my mind, even if i'm as busy as can be. i plan my day with her in mind, even if she isn't in the same land that i am. i plan my days, my weeks, my vacations, with her in mind. she encompasses my day and my night.

we've come so far, we really have. one year and many more 4-21s to come.

she makes me want to take her name and add it to mine. she makes me dream of weddings and to have and to hold, in times of happiness and sadness. she makes me envision a future, a home, our home, with her living in it with me, day after day, night after night. she makes me want to be her wife. she makes me want to tell the world that we are wife and wife. she makes me want to take her name and add it to mine.

you could say my age is not yet a sign of wanting to be married to her. you could say that i'm immature and not yet sensible enough. i tell you that that isn't true.

it isn't about age. it definately isn't being immature or insensible. it is just about finally being able to have someone you can dream of being with. it is about finally knowing that you want to be with someone forever. in all my relationships, i have never thought long-term. i was so practical, and i couldn't envision myself living with any of them in the future. so i never had the desire to think this long-term.

then she came along, and she made me think long term. she made me think of mornings and nights with her by my side. she made me think of her name to mine. most importantly, she made me want, she made me really desire to be with her, to belong to her for a lifetime.

she looks me in the eyes, and she tells me she loves me. she holds me so close when i'm with her, and she tells me she loves me. she kisses me so gently, so tenderly, and then she whispers how much she loves me in my ear. she makes love to me, gently, tenderly, and tells me how much she loves me while she makes love to me. and it shows, when she makes love to me, gently, lovingly, as if she were caressing something so precious, something so delicate, something that deserves to be loved.

and i love her back in return. i look her in the eyes, i hold her, and i whisper to her how much i love her. i whisper to her that i love her when we talk on the phone. i make love to her with a reverence born of wanting her to be loved, of wanting her to know that she deserves to be loved. i make love to her gently, tenderly, lovingly, caressing every inch of her body with such love and tenderness, because she is my beautiful flower waiting and deserving to be loved.

when she looks me in the eyes, when she holds me so close, when she talks to me on the phone, and she whispers the words "i love you so much baby", she makes me see how lucky i am. she lets me realise that i truly am lucky to have her loving me so much despite my faults. and she brings love to me, and love surges in my heart, it overwhelms me, and i know i love her so much more than i ever have.

if you ever doubt, ever doubt at all...
i love you my baby.

if anyone ever asks about two girls in love,
... ... ...
we are love.
we are the epitome of love.

we are.

i love you.
