The heartache I've felt has been worth it.
The sad breakups, the bad fights, the trauma and the tears,
It's all brought me here — To the now.
To you.
I get to come home to you each day and love you and cry and weep with elation, and wiggle like a happy dog.
I never thought I would have that.
I never thought I deserved that.
And yet, I have that now.
I hope you won't grow sick of me.
I hope I'm a good partner.
I hope I'm not annoying, or inattentive, or all the things that have been said about me or I say about myself.
I'm so tired today, but it's worth it.
Anything is worth it for you.
I think I need a nap, though.
