You broke me in the best way possible. You broke me in the delicious way a voice breaks to hit different note, in the way you break in a new favorite coat, in the way a bone needs to be rebroken and reset if it doesn’t heal properly.
You broke the person I was, the person I had somehow turned into along the way, and you pulled the best parts of who I used to be to the surface. In my heart you paved the way for who I am now. You stitched together the best parts of who I was then and who I used to be so long ago.
In loving you I started to love myself, to love who I turned into around you, to love the person you made me want to be.
Slowly, you led me to enjoy the world again and I’m forever grateful
And you wanna know something?
You didn’t even know you did it,
But I’m so glad you did
Happy birthday to my girlfriend
To you: my heart, my light, and my hope (and my gayness <3)
