dearest,

falling in love with you was like listening to a really good song for the first time and knowing that this is going to be the melody you could never get out of your head again.

but loving you?
that's beyond words, beyond a nameable experience.
you are the brightest star in my sky.
you are the deepest waters of my ocean.
you are the first blooming flower in my fields.
you are the rainbow after my storms.
you are the best thing in my whole damn universe, and loving you has become my world.

in these seven months i have no regrets,
except that i wish i loved you sooner.
that i saw your eyes and realized you were the one a little earlier.
that i spent less time waiting for the perfect moment,
but instead realized every moment with you is something divine.

in seven words: you are the light of my life.
in six: i'm lucky to call you mine.
in five: you are my favorite person.
in four: you are my everything.
in three: i love you.
in two: i'm yours.
in one: forever.

with all my love,
cait
