56th letter to Oliver

Dear Oliver,

Honey, thank you for celebrating valentines with me 💖

Thank you for playing "Untouchable" on the piano, I really appreciate it 💕

Please know that I appreciate everything you do for me, including the gifts (big and small).

There is a poem I read online and I want to share it with you --

"IT MAY BE MY FIRST TIME LOVING YOU"

I may not have been there to witness every version of you that learned how to survive,
the ones that broke quietly, and the ones that stayed even when they shouldn't have.

But even if I arrived late,
I love you like I've been waiting.

I love you in all your mistakes, the ones you forgive yourself for and the ones you don't.
I love you when you're steady and even when you feel like an earthquake waiting to happen.

I love you when you're gentle and I love you when you're exhausted of being strong.
I love you when you're sure and when you're so unsure it frightens you.

Even if this is my first time loving you, 
I promise you that it will not be shallow.
I promise you that it will always be unscathed and fervent.

I will love you in every version of you in this life.

If you change, I'll stay.
If you break, I'll sit with you in the ruins.
If you grow, I'll grow with you.

I choose you in every form you arrive in...

Honey, please know that I am not only your girlfriend, but I am also your friend, your big sis and your second mother :) and sometimes I am your daughter too hehe :)

Sincerely,

Cuubee 🍢
