Dear dragon...

The first time I saw you, I knew that I was going to fall in love with you, and I was terrified. I was scarred and torn and bruised and still bleeding a bit even. I was so scared to fall in love with you, but I didn't run because I knew that even if it didn't last, loving you would be the greatest thing I had ever gotten to do. Now, here we are, planning our wedding in our home, and I am stunned that the most amazing, beautiful person I have ever known loves me back. Being loved by you is the most amazing feeling I have ever experienced. You have made me feel strong and beautiful and safe. Things that I have never felt. I cannot even put into words everything that you have done for me. I can't name all of the ways that you have helped mend me. You have been my strength when I couldn't find my own. You have been my rock when I can't manage to stand on my own. You have given me more than you will ever know, and I am beyond thankful to have you. The fact that I get to marry you, still blows me away. I feel like one day I will wake up, and someone will tell me this was all a dream. But if that's true, I would rather spend my whole life in this dream with you than wake up even for a moment. You are my reason for staying strong, my reason for continuing on. You make every single day full of moments, full of memories, just in the little things you do. You make every one of my days filled with color when I used to only see black and white. You make me look forward to the next moment because I can't wait to spend it with you. I can't wait to make you smile, to make you laugh. I love seeing you smile. It's my favourite sight in the galaxy. But more so, I love being the reason behind it. I see you smile, and I know that I want to make that happen for the rest of my life. I love you more than words can possibly explain. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on, and yet you somehow still manage to be completely adorkable at the same time. I don't know how you do what you do, but I am so glad that I get to be by your side while you do it. You make me feel like I am good enough; you make me feel like I am enough. Everytime I see you, I can feel my heart swell with how completely in love with you I am. And my dragon, I am so incredibly in love with you... <3
