You are everything to me! I love you so deeply I’d struggle to even explain it. You are my rock and my light and everything. You’re amazing. I look at you like you hung the stars in the night sky, and to me, you did.
I felt blind before I met you. You opened my eyes. You showed me what love can be like.
I know we aren’t perfect. In some ways, we’re quite different. But we make it work. Thank God we make it work.
I wouldn’t be alive without you. (That’s not just because you’ve quite literally saved my skin multiple times.) I just love you so so much.
I know teenage love doesn’t always last. But I hope ours does.
I want to love you and hold you and build snowmen together and kiss the snowflakes off your cheeks in the winter and remind you that I adore you with every single ounce and fibre of my being. If I didn’t believe in God, you’d be the thing I worship.
You know I tell you I love you every day. I send you sweet sappy little tiktoks and you send me ones back of some guy doing a weird dance.
I love you for that. I love when I kiss you or tell you I love you that you sort of blush and clam up. I love you for that.
I love you for all the freckles on your cheeks. I love you for your laugh. I love you for everything you do.
I know you aren’t ready to say I love you out loud yet. But you make sure I know you love me. And I love you for that.
God, I’d wait a thousand years and a thousand lifetimes for you. Because I love you.
I often imagine the future. The one we’ve talked about together. A nice little house. Two kids. Maybe a dog and a cat. A house that’s us. A living, breathing functioning home full of so much love. Not one like mine right now. I hold that future close to my heart every hour of the day. I want it so deeply.
I imagine our prom one day. You in the suit you always wanted. Me in a pretty dress you love. (Let’s not match though – that’s a bit cringe.) I want to dance with you even though we both have two left feet. I want to kiss you in front of everyone and let them all know I’m yours and you’re mine. And hold you close to me.
