I have learned that the most beautiful pop in of love is unexpected.
The prompt was How do you imagine your life in five years?
I wrote:College in a big city, a journalism internship and a lofty, brick Brooklyn apartment.

If I was given the same assignment now, I would turn in an empty paper.
This past year, I have learned a lot.
I have learned that planning the future takes away from the present.
I never planned on falling in love.
I never planned on finding my forever person at a young age.
I never planned on giving one person the power to hurt me in the worst ways imaginable.
My letter described a small, overpriced apartmentmade for one.
I wasnt looking for you.
But I found you, and for that I am forever grateful.
You are my guidepost on the gloomiest of days.
A warm ray of sunshine directing me toward a safe haven.
Thank you for showing me acceptance.
Thank you for inspiring me to become a better person.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your world.
I want a forever with you.
I want to spend every day for the rest of my life with you.
I want to fall asleep in your arms at dusk.
I want to wake up beside you at dawn.
I can be happy with you, but to do that is unimaginable.
Although my assignment never touched base on a forever life with a soulmate, Im glad it didnt.
I believe that unplanned love is lustrous.
I believe that an unplanned life is exciting and radiant.
Thank you for being you.
Thank you for loving me effortlessly and unconditionally.
Thank you for unexpectedly entering my life.
I fall in love with you everyday.
The butterflies never fade away.
