Once Upon a Heartbeat

In every moment 

There are the sweetest fragments of you 

The way you tousle my curls 

The way you pull me closer to you

The way your hands reach out to caress my skin

The way you love me

The way you wrap your magnificent arms around me when I sleep 

The way you watch me when I sleep, when you think nobody can see 

The way you softly trace the outline of every curve on my body

The way your fingers trace where the colors of the brightest pinks you left upon my skin

The way you do every single thing

The way you love me 

The way you love me, Umair 

The way you protect me

The way you wrap me in your arms and let me cuddle deeply into your chest

The way you get spicy to defend me to everyone 

And you don’t think I understand a word

Indeed, I am not fluent in Urdu YET

But I speak the language of you and your heart fluently

All the ways you love me

All the ways I love your heart and the way you love me 

You are my forever

And I am yours

You are my exclusive sparkle 

In a growing dark world 

I love you, Umair 

PS he sends me love letters in photos every single day. Photos and videos by my husband Umair!
