To the man, I cherish everyday
(just like my siblings❣️)
If I look back at how I fell for him
I realise I never had to.
he behaved like a husband since day one !
He almost owned me!
He read every page of my life as if it was his !
He made plans without asking if I was in!
He always dashed in my comfort zone and behaved like it was his territory!
Above all this.... he kept me near like a little pet and proudly showed off that he was responsible for all my things!
When I said "life is big" we should take time to know each other! He would repeat everything I knew ....twice, thrice...a hundred times!
My heart did not long for someone special..I had given up thinking what that feels like!
but this person was different....he was worry free.....without hesitation....not ready with solutions or judgements....but listening ears and eyes, I felt could read me.
The things I would have been so thoughtful before doing or would have planned or prepared myself for...he simply excecuted!
Seeing my heart race.... he would stop pacing...would hold my hand, hold me as if he had been doing that since decades and calm me! He did not care....the train leaving ....missing flights.....losing money.....I still remember I was always the worry worm...and he Mr. Manager with the tagline "sab ho jayega".
At first the feeling felt very very strange......
Gradually I discovered....
I badly needed HIM⚘️
I needed someone who would let me be...!
Even today he has his likes and dislikes....sugegstions.....words of advice...but he let his wife be.
He let me be
***
I owe you, for being an intruder!
For making me....to like you,
For showing up...managing....and staying even when I didn't ask....did not desire.....was unsure.
For helping me realise, there is no perfect definition of love or finding a partner!
But there are emotions that root love....help it grow and bloom with time !
