sunshine boy
there is nothing i have to say about love that hasn't been said before. i might even unconsciously repeat some of it, but that is because i kinda understand what those people were talking about. this is my iteration.
you, my darling, are like the ray of light that shines after a rainfall, mixing with the remnant droplets to make a rainbow. the rainbow is a promise—a promise that the world will never be destroyed again by flood. maybe you are a promise that i will never be destroyed again by love. real, pure love.
because love was never meant to destroy. it was never meant to be a hurricane, causing havoc and mayhem in its wake. love was never meant to harden.
love is supposed to be healing. a balm to the soul. like water to a man in the desert. hope. joy. happy tears. a sigh of relief. renewed belief. life-changing in a way that makes your friends say you are glowing—that you have changed. now, you give tenderness more easily. you smile more. you let things roll off your back quicker. you are less vitriolic. you have become sweeter.
and maybe that is because of you. you have changed my life. never have i felt more seen and valued and respected. whenever you say ‘why?’ or ‘tell me more,’ it shifts something in me. somebody out there wants to know me, truly.
you are slowly and gently softening my rough edges. my soul sighs in relief every day because of you.
still, i cannot help but be scared. to want to run away. hide. because even though the sun is a light that makes a rainbow, it can also be intense. it makes one seek shelter away from it. and that is what you are. i do not want to be scorched.
so what do we do? do we stop? do we keep our distance? do we continue, hoping this will end well? but can we ever know the end of a thing? maybe the point isn't about the end. maybe it is about the journey—about how this changes us in the process.
(in theory, the last paragraph is cute, but in practice, i will murder you if you break my heart.)
Should anybody ask, this is purely a work of fiction. Thanks.
Until next time, beautiful one.
