Letter To My Companion In Life

You mean more to me than words can express.  The love, the arms that take care of me and the whispers that encourage me. Because we are a great team and because we are much more than that.

In us is the passion of lovers, the madness of the bride and groom and the commitment of the married. You and I will always be children, a little adolescent and, at times, one of those adults who sin seriously. But above all, we are life partners. 

You are the best mattress for my falls. My coat for the winter. A breath of fresh air in hellish moments. My sun and my stars, the same ones that fill me with vitality.

You can count on me. Not up to two and not up to ten, but count on me. With my shield, with my sword and with all my cavalry. Between you and me there is a different language with special words and phrases, built exclusively and with special reserve.

I miss you many times and very few more. That makes you wonderfully special. With you I think, talk, cry, laugh, dream and dance to the sound of any melody. We are our past, our present and our future.

We are perfectly imperfect

Together we are perfectly imperfect, but not because we don’t have problems but because we have been able to solve them. And it is that love has its ups and downs … That is why we must enjoy it to the fullest, working together to overcome our crises and our confrontations.

Naturally, I don’t adore all your faces. I don’t even adore mine, what a madness that would be! But there is something that I would not change for anything and that is to be able to live with you any expression of life.

You get angry, I get angry, and sometimes we fail each other. Sometimes we don’t keep our promises as we should but we know how to grow together overcoming our imperfections.

Love, you hold me and I hold on to you

And my voice and your voice. And the childhood of my interior. That tenderness that I only have for you and for our moments. We both know that if something sustains us, it is the complicity of daily details. That is what love as a couple consists of.

If your world falls apart, come to mine and we rebuild it. If my world falls apart, I go to yours and we reshape it. This is how this works.

I love you to where your defects go

Because our relationship has that point that, in psychology, they call acceptance. You are unique and that makes you exceptional. Because if I wasted my time making parallel judgments, I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the present with you.

In you I do not look for my desires nor do I want you to fill my voids. We are both complete and whole people. Changing and maturing together is an infinite pleasure.

And no, I don’t need you, but I prefer you and I choose you to enjoy the landscape together. Because love is that, wanting without depending and feeling loving. Love without emotional prisons and with the limits that chance imposes on us.

Thank you for always being present

No matter how many times I say ‘I love you’, I feel like they are never enough. You have become one of the most important people in my life. You are one of those hopelessly satisfying priorities.

I’m not going to tell you that before you arrived I was empty, nor that you filled in a hole that was missing in me. But what is true is that it is difficult for me to imagine a life in which you are not.

You make me happy every day and your smile is the most powerful source of energy that I have managed to gather. That’s why I don’t want to change you for anything, or for anyone.

I have to thank you for your patience with me, because I am aware that sometimes I can be a very complicated person. With your serenity and your hand, you manage to bring me back to the path of calm and firm steps. Your support has been, is and will be vital for me to move forward.

You are my greatest inspiration and I want you to be part of my decisions and desires. Let this grow without limits or ceilings, because that is how we conceived it from the beginning. That’s why, even though I sometimes forget to tell you, I love you.
