Beyond my other half

You are my better half.

You are my eye in a rage. You know what to say so I don't rip my own fucking eyes out in insanity. You calm me down and say the right things to encourage the outburst and to discourage hasty actions.

You are my pillow in a car wreck. You accept that my job gives me one stroke a month and you are there through it all, cushioning me to the best you can. You support me and tell me I'm invincible, and I believe it.

You are my physiotherapist in a bout of stiffness. You know how to stroke me and have me falling at your feet, you know how to kiss me and have me aching for more. You know all my buttons, and you know the wondrous ways they can be pushed.

And in turn, I am your necessary half.

I am your conviction in a haze of confusion. I know how to ease away all your work worries and job insecurities, holding and holding you till I starve them out to die. I believe, and I believe simply.

I am your raft in a storm. I edge you to where I know you can be, and I help steer your back to the shore you deserve. I know you can, and I don't stop stretching your capabilities till you reach your intended.

But I need you more than you need me.

Because you are the binding fabric in the grand quilt of my future. Because you are the architectural centrepiece among the monuments of my future that I am building. Because you are the king chess piece, along with my family, that I spend all my pawns guarding zealously. Because you are my future, and I belong to you.

And miraculously, you belong to me too.

I'll love you forever.



My boyfriend in a veil!

Friday passed by fruitfully with work finally working out. I tell you this job is gonna give me my first heart attack at 23, I know it. Anyway, it concluded early and I managed to slot in some yoga before closing my Carousell meetups before finally bringing the Boyfriend to the Grandma's for dinner!

I have no photos because I was feeling pretty lazy there and spent it mainly lazing around and tending to my headachey baby. But basically my grandma spent majority of the time frustratedly wondering why her "update pending" Toggle wouldn't load.

Headed home after intending to watch a movie but we knocked out real quick.
