❛ Dear Riley ❜


I love you.

I know that's not how letters are supposed to start, but I can't help it. I love you. It's crazy to think about how far we've come. I still can't fathom that you're all mine. It's so lovely to be loved by you. I feel like I'm in a dream I'm yet to wake up from...but how cliche would that be? Knowing I have you has filled me with immense gratitude and happiness. I can't even begin to describe it in words. Even words aren't enough sometimes...I'm really nervous right now. I've never really written anything like this before—but I'm sure you know that by now. I really hope I'm doing well at this—relationship and all. If you're wondering why I'm writing, well, I don't really have any reason as to why I'm writing at all. But, I can't stop missing you. I'm at school right now finalising everything for graduation and that speech. I found some paper and a pen lying around so here I am writing this to you. My darling. My sweetheart. My best friend and my lover. In the time that you have entered my life and have claimed my heart and soul, you have also become my breath; my wholeness; my everything. When you're not near I feel as if the air is sucked out of my lungs... I would simply cease to exist. I still can't fathom how I so easily happened to have made you mine. I thank every angel and lucky star. Every day to be exact.
If it were up to me I'd collect every star in the universe in order to prove my love for you. You're just like no other. You keep me warm. You make me feel loved. You make me feel special. I can be me and I can love you to my hearts content. I want to tell you how much I love you, but once again, words may never be enough. My love for you is incomprehensible, insistent and all-absorbing. I love you forever, my Marshmallow. I can't wait to come home to you. You're the best thing to ever happen to me. To forever and always with you. You're mine to marry one day :) I hope you'll accept my heart and my love even then. Until then, I know that dreams certainly do come true. Because you are my dream turned into reality.

All my love always,

Maisie <3
