i swear that i've learned from my mistakes. 

i promise that i will be vulnerable

and that it will cause pain, but mostly 

it will make us feel like we belong.

maybe we belong together. maybe alone. 

but probably somewhere in between. 

so, because i love you, 

i will let you be alone when you need it.

and i will tell you when i need the same. 

i will care and comfort and protect,

because you make me feel full.

because every day is better with you.

because the world seems less empty.

because i. love. you.
