A "thank you" note

Thank you for being you last night - for holding me, making me laugh, erasing my doubts, and for making me feel loved. Thank you for not running away when my mental illness forcibly exposed my vulnerabilities without my consent.

I've never felt as safe as I did in your arms last night. You give me hope with every nibble and silly face. :) I feel like you not only smooshed all my broken pieces back together, but have helped me become this strong, beautiful masterpiece in the process. Perhaps unknowingly, you've helped me love myself. I'm not sure I could even explain how insurmountable that would have been at any point in the last 4 years or so.

This still doesn't feel real, but I'm not going to fight it anymore. I don't care what happened in either of our pasts. I'm giving you my heart, because you've already given me so much more. You make me smile everyday.
