Not another one!

Not pictured: My heart growing arms and legs, climbing out of my chest, marching its fat little self to the floor and melting into a big puddle of love.

I love you, baby.

Counting down the hours

T--

A long, frustrating day at the office. Jesus, and it's just Monday!
I know you're sleeping. I envy Coat for being with you. ;-)
I miss you, love. I can't wait to see you. And hug you. And feel all warm and fuzzy again. Like a damn, big lug. :-)


Counting down the hours,

V

Reminded me of you.

Keep calm

T.

Since we are admittedly both so fond of 'Keep Calm' phrases, here's one. :-) It is too 'you' and too cute not to post!

I know how busy, tired and overwhelmed you are this week. I will try my best not to get in the way so as not to add to the stress that the next couple of days will bring.

Breathe, my love. I know how smart, resilient and good you are. That is why I fell in love with you in the first place! It will be better, I promise.

I can't wait for our Cebu trip next month. God knows we both deserve a break!

More than a cuppa

There are a few things that do define me to a T, and these are:

1. My poetry
2. Stilettos
3. Coffee

I must say that when you came along...

Yep. So help me God if you don't become my wife (Ok, I will settle for 'my forever').

Fate must be on our side because never a day goes by that we don't catch a glimpse of each other regardless of how atrocious the work weeks are becoming for us. Fate has been infallible so far, it's not even funny. I may be jinxing this amazing phenomena but I don't give a damn --- I have faith, you see. I have faith in you and me.

Cuddle, cuddle

We live and work in different timezones. In the morning, I am spent and listless. Nights are spent making a living. I race home just before sunrise, hoping to catch you in bed--still sleeping. The sight of you all quiet and curled up in a ball is enough to make me smile. I lie next to you and instantly feel relief. I am home.

I hug you from behind as you turn to face me half-asleep/half-awake, murmuring with your eyes closed. My left arm is snug around your waist as you clasp my hand, intent on holding it tightly. I rest my face on your back and then your shoulder. I ramble about my day, always ending with 'You know I love you, right?' Within minutes, I am asleep.

A good thing

V --

I rarely bite but I pinch (you) a lot.
I do not mean to hurt you; rather I am sometimes filled with such overwhelming affection for you that I can't help but pinch a feel. It's not all the time that I can fling my arms around you for a big hug.

The past several days, weeks even, have been pretty rough for you but you are holding up quite nicely.
I would like to think you are the strongest you have ever been what with work and certain disappointments that have come your way. I'm proud of you, my love.
I am confident that you will get past these hurdles and emerge.
Believe that in time, we will be laughing about them over beer or a cup of coffee.

While I would like you to press on unflinching, this I ask of you: Don't be too hard on yourself.
Because at the end of the day, more than anything, you need you on your side.

I love you, sweetheart.

You hold on to a good thing. And never let go.
You are my good thing.

Strength

Oh, yes, you are.

I may have a tougher exterior but you, my love, have been keeping me together.
One can only hope that things are perfect from the get-go but life isn't like that.

You are like a pin--one good thing that keeps everything from falling apart.
I appreciate you and I love you.
