I hope you never stop loving me,
even on the days when i am difficult to understand,
and hard to be with.
There will be days when silence wraps around me,
when my words stumble and my heart hides behind walls
it built long before you ever arrived.
Days when I seem distant,
when I lose the warmth in my own hands
and forget how to reach for yours.
There will be times when I am not my best self —
when I say the wrong things,
when my pride speaks louder than my heart,
when I make mistakes that leave quiet bruises
on the love we’ve built so carefully.
So when it’s hard,
I hope you love me harder.
When I’m lost,
I hope you stay close enough to be found.
And when I’m not the person you fell in love with,
I hope you still see the person who’s trying
to be worthy of your love again.
Because love, to me,
isn’t about the easy days —
it’s about the trembling ones,
the ones that test our patience,
our faith, our choice to stay.
And through it all,
I hope you never stop loving me,
even when I am hard to hold,
even when I am still learning how to deserve you.
💍
For my fiancé, my future husband — Mr D.
You are the amazing person who has accepted all of me —
my strengths, my flaws,
my excesses, my shortcomings.
You have loved me wholly,
and for that, I am endlessly grateful.
