you are every beautiful part of me. i saw the world in its beauty through the way you loved me. you didn't just love me, you reminded me i was worth to be loved. you made softness feel safe again. and somehow, because of you, even ordinary days looked brighter. you loved me in ways that didn't need to be loud to be real, in the check-ins, the gentle reassurance, the space you gave me to be human. you paid attention to the parts of me i used to hide, and you never made me feel like i was too much. you taught me that love isn't just a feeling, it's a choice. a steady kind of care that shows up, listens, stays present, and doesn't disappear when things get complicated. with you, i learned that i don't have to earn tenderness. i can simply receive it. if love has a language, you spoke it in patience, in presence, in the little things. and i'll always be grateful i got to experience a love that showed me the world like that, a love that helped me find my way back to myself, and made me believe in good love again.
