But I still consider those to have been the best years of my youth. The great lessons I learned has been p…

I want to chase you until we are just two bodies, falling on one another like a dance, and laughing too hard to stand back up again. I want to star gaze with you and listen to you tell me all about the galaxies and th…

Run away with me. Pack your bags and leave your reservations behind. Unpack your hopes and your fears and every dream that you let drop by the wayside over the years.

Let’s go, my love…
I want to stain every city with our love; I want to steal countries from your heart so they can only ever belong to us. I want to remember how alive and in love and insanely happy we were.
