An open letter for my best friend's future partner
March 14, 2017
If you're reading this, you're probably one of the person she loves most and I hope you know how lucky you are for that. My best friend carries a universe inside her, one where I hope you would take the time to map and explore. It could take you all your life but I hope you're patient. She is the star on a clear night, she is also the gloomy sky when it rains and storms. I hope you can appreciate her when she's shining her brightest and lift her up when she's on her knees having the weight of the world crushing her down. She is an ocean, her tides change with the moon. And you are a sailor in her waters, brave, conquering the raging storm. If you're reading this I know she has found the one, hopefully the love of her life because I will not settle for anything less.
My best friend does not know how to love in moderation because when she falls, she falls hard and she falls fast. She's strong but fragile, she cries easily but she's determine in her decisions, she knows how to stand her ground. She has loved and been loved. She too has been hurt and broken. If you're reading this, you probably have pieces of her broken heart if not whole. I will not ask you to patch her up because my best friend is not some ceramic doll that needs fixing. She is the girl standing next to you now because of her broken pieces. She is more than her broken heart. What I dare ask is to treasure her for all she is. I hope you love her sharp edges even though sometimes she bleeds from it. I hope you kiss her wounds better. I hope you fall in love with the way she laughs at something stupid. I hope you realise how much she loves you when you look into her eyes. Most importantly, I hope you'll love her as much I did, as much as I do.
She has been my world and you will soon be hers. Do not let her crash and burn because I will pour you the ashes and drown you in your own fire.
happiest birthday my lovely Haziera I hope you know you are loved wherever you are <3
