I used to think that finding you would be like throwing away the stone that had weighed on my heart for five years. Instead, I found that it weighed even more heavily. Before, all I had to wonder was where that girl was. Now there’s so much more to think about: whether you’re happy, tired, and safe. Those are all things I can’t stop worrying about. But above all else, you’re the one I can’t let go of. No matter what, I want you by my side, close enough to reach, so I can watch over you, protect you…and love you.
