The heart wants what it wants

My beloved one,

I remember the days when we were just friends, when you were chaining my body in a gentle hug and, on the forehead, you used to kiss me goodnight. I knew back then that you are my soulmate and that soulmates never die. I treasured every bite of our strange friendship as a one in a lifetime wonder, secretly hoping that you will always be there, by my side.

Then, you taught me to love you like a child learns to walk : rising, stumbling, falling only to rise again. With the knees bleeding and the heart shaking, I knew I had to take the risk : the risk to love you, to believe in us, to be vulnerable and the risk to lose you. The emotions were struggling through my eyes, materializing in salted teardrops and caressing gently my face in their sweet fall.

Together, we've learned to let go in order to achieve so we've opened the cage to admire each other flying away. But every single time, we came back, knowing deep inside that home is where the heart is and that our hearts were waltzing together since long time ago.

We've had our tough moments, when despair knelt hope by separating our ways but I've learned with the time that the parallelism of roads is hiding the intersection of hearts. Because the time has a wonderful way to show us what really matters.

And what matters for me is you to be happy ... simply because you are my happiness…
