Chapter Text
The sun streams into the room, bathing you…bathing us in warm, golden light.
The long lines of your lithe body recall masterworks of ancient marble, timeless sculptures of human beauty.
And you are here, with me.
Still.
After everything.
I promise I'll wake every night to comfort the thoughts that haunt your dreams, until you know those days are past.
Gratitude fills my soul and I thank the universe for another day.
You can be my clouds this morning, my moment of realizing the world is bigger than me and my problems.
Nature is beautiful, no doubt.
But it doesn't hold a candle to you.
Your eyes pull open, unfocused at first but then quickly drilling into mine. An ever-changing kaleidoscope of foliage and earth and fire.
And uncertainty.
I wish you could find peace, find a way to trust that I'm okay and am doing everything I can to stay okay. I wish you could understand that, despite anything that's happened in the past, you are my only.
I am yours.
Trust me.
