Dearest You,

Thank you.

You are this beautiful oasis of calm stability in the middle of my chaotic life. After a series of rough days, I asked for a hug. You were there, by my side, and I felt it all melt away. A moment to lean into you, I could have stayed there for days. Breathing you in, the smokey scent, fitting into that curve above your hip. I wanted to put my arm around you, close my eyes, and just breathe.

Later, you gave me an amazing hug, and again, it all melted away. You holding me tight, me clinging to you, once again breathing you.

Thank you.
