You did something for me I couldn’t do for myself. You loved me for who I am.

an open letter to half of my heart
They say your soulmate is someone you’ve met in many lives before the one you're currently living.
That they feel familiar to you.
You make a deal with each other in all the lives before that you will find the other in the next.
You swear to eachother that you’ll defy the universes inevitable fucked up plans and seemingly ill-thought out scenarios that are gonna try their very best to keep you apart.
These are the thoughts that flood my brain when I think about you.
When I think about how we defied every worst case scenario, every hateful coworker, every vice and every “that would happen to us” that was thrown in our lap.
If you think about it, all those things were blessings in the worst disguise.
In the moment, the disguise seemed like the largest brick wall standing between us and our future but in the long run we can truly thank all of those things for bringing us closer as each day went by and each worst case scenario made our bond tighter than ever.
I truly see you as my soulmate and every day that truth is made more and more solidified in my brain and heart simply by just the way you look at me. The vulnerable but invasive feelings that course through my veins in those small moments of intimacy are enough to last me a lifetime.
