My heart beats faster whenever you’re around. I get lost in those big brown eyes of yours and get all tongue-tied. It’s as if the world stopped and the only two people left are him and I. We got that love that no one can compare. It’s the love that people dream of having at least once in a lifetime You have the patience to stand by my side, on the good and bad days.

As Marilyn Monroe once said, if you can’t love me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best. You embrace my flaws and guard my insecurities. You uplift me every morning and caress my cheek before I fall into slumber.

My heart yearns for your body to hold me tight, as your body perfectly sculpts into mine.

It yearns for your rough hands to run along the side of my inner thigh. I always try my hardest to remember this exact feeling because if things ever went left, this memory of us will forever remain.

To my lover, I’ll never lie to you. Our souls are intertwined. We are like two flames, moving on our own rhythm. I am able to feed off the energy you produce. So there is never a dull moment that is spent with you.

The memories of us will become stories we tell our children. I’ll start off by telling them about how we used to sit on rooftops just talking about anything and everything until the sun comes up. I’ll tell them how you treated me like a queen because our children, one day, they will date. And when that day comes, they will need to know how they should be treated and how to treat someone they’re having relations with as well.

To my lover, I am glad that I have finally found you. I have had my more than fair shares of heartbreaks. But I do believe that everything happens for a reason... Everything you’ve endured, the trials and tribulations had a purpose. It honestly shapes you to become the best version of yourself.

I no longer feel butterflies when you enter a room. Instead, my heart rate becomes slower as a sense of comfortability. The spontaneous kisses we had will turn into “see you after work” kisses. The highlight of our day will be still be waking up to seeing one another in the morning and going to sleep together. Our legs that were once intermingled with one another, so much you couldn’t tell where it began or ended, no longer into existence. We sleep on opposite sides but amongst your deepest slumber, you pull me closer to you, as if my body brings you peace. These are the moments that I savor. The small things.

To my lover, our love is special.The bond we have will bend but never break. We are in this for the long run.

I am yours and you are mine.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
