You Light Up My World

It’s the season of sparkle and glow

Lovers cuddle a little closer 

Arms linked tightly

Fingers clasped with each other 

Bodies touching 

The smell of your cologne 

The scent of your cologne, Umair

Igniting a million memories 

The ones where you and I shared nine magical days and nights in the beginning of our journey! Unforgettable moments where you asked me to marry you and I said yes!

Listen closely, my darling, as I whisper the words softly into your ear. Thank you, my love, for another brilliant year

Loving you is easy 

Needing you deeply, 

want to feel you in my arms 

Want to curl up on your chest 

Feeling every touch as my husband plays with my curls 

Soft and sweet sleep beckons to me

I hope these are the very last of 8 thousand-ish miles that keep us apart 

Needing and wanting to feel the moments where you and I are together in “real,” and our clothes are beautifully scattered on the floor 

You and I collide into the same space and time, and our bodies become intertwined in ecstasy

A husband and wife united in holy matrimony and who could possibly need more

I get the biggest of presents to have a second ceremony where you and I wed in front of family and friends 

Wanting and aching to feel you near 

to be together in the same country is a USCIS complex algorithm 

And while they may take time, there is “nahi” denying what is undeniably real

You are my forever 

You are my everything, baby

Mein ap say muhabit karta hoon meri jaani, Umair
