H,

I do

〰️

I do 〰️

I’ve always been good with words, an expert at expressing exactly how I feel.
But for the first time, words fail to capture the depth of what I feel for you.
Still, I’ll try.

As I reflect on our journey, all the puzzle pieces in my mind start to fit together.
When we first met, I was so taken aback by your sureness of me, by your assertiveness, and how bold and brave you were with your heart.

In comparison, I was reserved. I was scared to let you in. It took me a while to catch up to you.
But it was never you I doubted. From the moment my eyes met yours, I was yours.
I just needed to be sure of myself , my judgment, my choices, because I had been wrong and hurt before.

What I didn’t realize was that this decision had already been made.
We belong to each other. God decided that for us, and what better decision-maker is there?

I relied on my faith, and I leaped with you.

Nothing in my life ever came easy; I always had to fight, to survive, to just focus on getting to the next point.
I never truly had the luxury of just being.

Until you.

Loving you is so easy.
Everything with you feels like smooth sailing, a dream I never want to wake up from.

You are all the love I’ve ever given to the world, finally coming back to me.
You are more than what I asked God for.
You make me so fucking happy, a kind of joy I didn’t know existed.

You are the prince charming girls dream about, but even they know it’s a delusional standard.

You are that delusional standard, except you’re real.

You are the I-want-to-hit-pause-and-live-in-this-moment-forever moment.
You are the only person I’ll ever want to take this leap of faith with.

To my first, only, and last —
Today, we become one.

P.S. Munchkin, I’m so grossly in love with you it feels like my heart might burst. 💛
