Love Letter

Remember this feeling, love, next time you're down.

Remember the day you woke up next to him and looked into
his eyes and you knew what a soulmate feels like.

Remember the feeling of the sun on your skin on the
glorious days in the city and how grateful you feel the sun
hasn't imploded on itself and dragged us to darkness.

Remember what it feels like to kiss someone you're really
into for the first time, how your lips carry the
conversation your minds were having until that crashing-
into-each-other moment.

Remember what the food that reminds you of home tastes
like.

What singing along to your favorite songs at the top of
your lungs does for your soul.

Remember the feeling of moving to music and getting lost
in the sweatiest, most fun dance of your life when you
can't stop smiling and you don't give a fuck who is there,
you just move and it feels incredible.

The feeling of your favorite band playing in front of
you, right there, when you're at the front and you get hit
with the sound waves and you scream and it feels like the
best roller coaster ride.

The butterflies you feel when you're about to be naked
with someone you love. Every. Time.

How a scent can trigger your best memories.

Laughing with your best friends so hard you can't breathe
and there are tears streaming down your face and your abs
get the best workout.

The excitement of not being able to fall asleep before a
fun trip.

The feeling of being enveloped in salt water, all water,
the mother sea, how she holds us and floats us and makes us
fly underwater.

The exhilaration jumping off the highest cliff in the
name of Peter Pan!!

How beautiful flowers are and how you can stop dead in
your tracks at the smell of jasmine.

How warm and fuzzy puppies make you feel and you
immediately drop to their level to cuddle them and
literally allow a random tongue to lick your face.

How much you love cats and cat paraphernalia and how
you'd do anything to have a house full of them.

You can't escape the love.
Come what may.
It's all around you, pouring out of you, connecting you
to yourself, your friends, lovers, your chosen kin, the
plants, the animals, the sky, the water, the clouds, the
stars, the world, the cosmos, everything above and beyond
the mundane, all the way to the sublime.

You are the entire sky, babe.

You are made of galaxies.

You are complex and lovely and fun and smart and so, so,
so worth every minute spent with yourself.
