Dear Kokol,
Ended up falling in love with you is one of the most unexpected things I am thankful of. Letting myself be in love with you, genuinely, always amazes me whenever I am thinking about how we fell in love with each other. Not just because I did not force any single thing to reciprocate what you are feeling or compel myself to love you, but because I just let things go with the flow (in its natural course, using your own words lmao) where the situation will take us. I did not expect that it would bring us here – in this relationship that we have right now.
As days goes by, as we talk with each other, and finally unveiling ourselves, being in love with someone who is so transparent is such a wonderful feeling you could ever experience. I am so grateful and overwhelmed to know that you were willing to share your struggles and traumas with me. I also want to remind you that regardless of your struggles and in the midst of your frailness, there is someone who is willing to be your guide. Someone who will hold your hand for you not to be scared of the things that might come into your way. Your situation urges me to always assure you that you are not alone, that you have me.
Loving me requires a lot of patience and understanding. I want to thank you for not letting me feel that you are already fed up dealing with my uncalled attitudes – on the times that I somehow burst out when I am not in the mood or when I am in distress. You were never scared to cross my fiery attitude in order for you to put solace and refreshment in times I explode out. I love how you remind me to just let it out. You will never give up on crossing oceans for me. You conquer all the monsters in my oceans of thoughts to save me, especially when I am drowned by it. You might not know how to swim, yet you saved me numerous times when I cannot swim any longer because I let myself be inundated. You never hesitated to break off the black hole of my own universe. You vanquished all the unexplainable phenomena that exist in it for you to void my maelstrom of abominable cathexis. You are ready enough to share the light present in your cosmos with me, the light that will guide the both of us to take the right path to the place we both deserve.
You are a symbol of love that heals a person, a love that will make someone’s world better. And your love is a universe I want to live in, but I am more thankful that you also want to live in mine despite its emptiness. Thank you for loving me the way I wanted to be loved.
Kol, for you, a thousand times over.
Love,
Gold
