for my honey, Shreyas

Happy Boyfriend Day

to the best boyfriend in the world.

And to the boy who somehow made being loved feel like coming home.

You are my angel, my pride, my sustenance – everything I ever need and everything I ever wanted.

my favourite face
my favourite smile
my favourite place to be

Sometimes I wonder what good luck I must've had to be able to call you mine.

In all the usual and unusual ways you choose me, every single day of it, I feel a little bit like the luckiest girl alive.

You make me feel valued.
You make me feel special.
You make me feel as if the whole world has quietly placed a crown on my head.

And if this is being loved by you I hope I never get used to the magic of it.

There is a twinkle in your eyes
that I have come to know by heart.

And sometimes I think
if I were ever lost,
I would only have to look for it.

You are my little North Star.

And then there is the fact that you are so so sweet – my Honey.

you are sweetness in all the places I didn't know I needed it.

Sagittarius ♐︎
Shreyas

Gemini & Sagittarius.
Sister signs.
Opposite, but belonging to the same family of stars.

One looks at the world with curiosity;
the other runs toward it.

And yet, between the two of us,
we have found ourselves the perfect home.

we might not have been written in the same constellation.
but we were written to find each other.

Being with you that makes me feel like a little girl being taken care of by someone stronger than the entire world. I get to be delicate. I get to be goofy. I get to be soft and a bit fragile, knowing that you will always be there.

You are so strong in so many ways. Your dedication, your values, your steadiness, the way you walk through the world– with your dreams, your ambition, your patience and your strength. But one of my favourite things about you is that with me, you let that strength soften. I get to see the gentlest parts of you. The tenderness behind the strength. I want to protect the softness you trust me enough to show me, the same way you make me feel safe enough to show you mine.

I will always take care of your big, beautiful heart.

my happiness

I hope to celebrate you always, my love.

I hope you always know how deeply you are loved.

I hope the world is gentle with your heart.

And I hope that you never lose the sweetness in you.

And I hope to be lucky enough
to stand beside you for a very, very long time.

— yours, Geetanjali ♥
