That feels good for us.
Every time I get the urge to call you, miraculously I refrain.
I met you when I was 17.
Matheus Lira
13 years, now youre a habit, a routine.
I broke your heart.
You broke mine first.
I lied to you.
We moved across the country together.
I still have your last name.
We move three states over.
My mind could not draw up any image that looked like your typical American Dream.
13 is the number of years Ive known you.
2 is the number of times Ive walked out of your life.
100 is the number of texts you sent me that night.
30 are the years that have passed me by.
I can only say that our love holds us together.
We are so different.
Yet, sometimes when we are together, I forget we are separate people.
Our souls have somehow entangled into one.
Love is a strange force.
We have realized that our love is beautiful and unique.
We have realized how to make the most of our love and still be ourselves.
Not everything has to look like we have seen in the majority of the social world.
More and more I am seeing couples thriving in relationships with boundaries.
More respect, encouragement, and space leads to a deeper understanding and love.
Who says we cant have it all?!
Let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of heaven dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Expressed by Kahlil Gibran, a poet, artist, and philosopher.
Expect to be different.
Expect to be genuine.
Expect to have lots of experiences.
Expect to be your best self and expect that to always look different.
It no longer hurts when I look at your photograph.
I still rarely call because Id rather send you sweet love letters in the mail.
Our love will never look the same.
