You give me hope. You're miles away, but your presence never seems far. With this small emblem of the existence of you wrapped around my wrist, I feel invincible, knowing that you are always there. Thank you for giving me this hope. Without you, the deepest shadows of my life would have never even begun to lighten. And even though those shadows frequently darken, spilling grey clouds and pouring rain into the the depths of my soul, I am always aware of the flicker in my heart. A candle in the dark, luminescent and bright even in the weariest of times. A seperate beat that is just for you. A part of me. You will never know how much I owe you, my dear one. Thank you, for your love and for your hope.
And you, precious and most amazing creature, you give me the will to go on. You give me the fight, the force; you are the wind that drives me to bluer skies. What I would do without you is unbearable to think about, so I shall not do so. You are indispensable to my life. Essential, you are. Seeing your smile everyday is what makes me believe that one day I may be able to smile as joyfully as you. You're the brightest star in the sky, the highest tide in the ocean, and the softest breeze on a summer day. Thank you, for being you. That's all I ask of you. Thank you.
I am forever grateful.
