Stay. I hope you stay with me until this lifetime ends.

I can't bear the thought of waking up without hearing your soft whispers in my ear, saying, 'Elara, I love you.' I know that I won't survive without you by my side. You have been my everything. You taught me to depend on you, and I've forgotten how I lived before having you.

You may never fully comprehend how much I appreciate you. Your smallest gestures have shattered my only semblance of sanity. They may be simple, but know that they are always more than enough for me.

My mind might not retain every minute detail of how you've transformed my life, but my heart will forever seek out the memories, embracing them soulfully, never wanting to let go or lose any trace of them.

Your simple ways drive my heart to the brink of madness. I appreciate how you've always been patient, even when time has been inconsistent. The way you pulled me over to the safest side of the road to tuck me in. The moment your fingers intertwined with mine, gently and with care.

I'm thankful for all the efforts you've made, from the cutest paper flowers to pastel bouquets of tulips. And for all those letters, whether sent or kept in your drafts, I may not have received them physically, but I've read the heartwarming content that I'm grateful you didn't send. I want to keep those words in my own space.

Thank you for being the missing piece of the puzzle, eagerly assembling words I couldn't express, feelings I couldn't contain, and thoughts that overwhelms me.

Yes, it's only with you that I've felt this way. Yes, I wish for an infinite lifetime where we can simply cuddle away everything.
