twelve months, one day

it is time for a break.

yesterday was our one year anniversary. i know he will read this. and that makes me smile. i gave him a box filled with twelve gifts; one for each month that we have been together. i gave him a key to my house, tickets to the eels concert and a letter of confessions. i gave him a letter detailing every dirty little secret of mine. every time i have broken down. i told him the stories behind my scars. i told him that he needed to know. i told him that i need him to still love me knowing what i have done, and can do.

him: i do not cae if you have scars on your arms or your legs, i still love you and i always will. and if anyone ever gets up you about them i swear i will tear them apart.

and that is honestly the most beautiful thing anyone has ever said to me. i could not stop myself. and i broke down. again. anniversaries have a way of doing this to me.

him: if i could i would get down on one knee right now and propose to you.

and the second most beautiful thing.

and so at three am this morning he surprises me with a gift “that isn’t much but i hope you like it”. a diamond and sapphire silver ring. he tells me that the next ring he buys me will be an engagement ring. and this morning i wake up at eleven am to a delivery of forty-eight red roses to my door. they are sitting in an old chupa-chup container in the middle of my desk. my room smells of roses. it is gorgeous.

and i swear, this boy has turned me into something i thought i would never be. i want to listen to him breathe forever. i love this boy. by god do i love him.

and to you, if you had, i would have said yes. happy one year, geek. i love you like consonants love vowels.
