As I heard you say, “All that I want is to be yours.” Falling in love, deeper than I've felt it before with you.

I have walked side by side with loss. I have laid my head down on his lap and felt his palm against my cheek. It is true; I have been intimate with loss. I have invited him into my heart, into my bed. I have let him live with me for all this time. And it was only after having known him, did I understand he is an intermediary? A bridge to something so much more beautiful. For it is only through my meeting with loss, that I can truly know love.
