Luminesce
she glowed, and I never dimmed again.
I remember the first time i saw her. it was just a normal day, nothing special — the kind of day that slips by unnoticed.
I thought she’d be just another person in my life, nothing more, nothing less.
and oh, how wrong i was.
She smiled at me. a real, genuine smile — the kind that feels like sunlight after weeks of rain.
she didn’t know me. i wasn’t even being particularly nice to her. yet there she was, smiling like she was happy i existed.
i didn’t understand it, but that smile made something inside me shift. it was small at first — a quiet warmth — but it stayed.
since that day, she’s been my favorite person.
she was so pure, so kind, that it almost hurt. someone as gloomy as me didn’t deserve a smile that gentle.
so, i made a promise — that I’d take care of her, protect her, and love her until my very last breath.
years later, nothing’s changed.
she’s still my favorite human. still the brightest thing in my sky.
i like to think God sent her to me — that she’s the kind of blessing you only get once in a lifetime.
and even in my worst moments, I’ve never regretted her. not once.
then came that nightmare.
she was gone. I’d lost her.
the grief felt real — like my heart was tearing itself apart. i remember crying so hard, whispering, please let it be just a dream. but i couldn’t wake up. I felt hopeless, lost, empty.
and when i finally did wake up, I broke again — this time from relief. I just sat there, crying, grateful that she was still here.
her smiles made their way into my heart and built a home there.
they warmed the coldest parts of me, quietly, effortlessly.
she doesn’t even know the power she holds — how she saves me, without even trying.
this love... it’s not something i can name. it’s too vast, too sacred, too real.
I just know that I love her — deeply, endlessly, softly.
and maybe that’s all that needs to be said.
love doesn’t always ask to be romantic — sometimes it just asks to be felt. 💗
