“I want deeper connections with the people around me. I need to reach out more. Because not everyone leaves. Sometimes if you reach out, the person you’re trying to reach will be right there waiting.”
happiness is having you wrapped around me like a question mark, because there are so many questions to ask, but there is still so much time to ask them.
so for now, it is quiet, and though the city outside is terrifying, there is nowhere i feel safer than between your arms, fingers tangled in my hair.
happiness is whispers exchanged between kisses. words that are meant only for us to hear. words about love and how beautiful we are, loving and being loved.
loving you is often loud screaming “i’m in love with you” at the top of my lungs, but for now, it is soft, silent, raindrops-tapping-on-a-window love.
there was a time, long ago that i doubted i’d be happy. but in this space, falling asleep to your chest pressed against my back, unsaid words passing through every breath, i have never been so glad to be wrong.
