Couple. What does that mean? The dictionary defines it as follows: Noun: Two people or things of the same sort considered together. Or.. Two people who are married or otherwise closely associated romantically or sexually. Verb: Link or combine (something) with something else. Or. Mate or have sexual intercourse.

Then Yes, we are a couple by dictionary by definition but so much more..

I’ve been spending this evening busying myself while she works, my angel, finding her way in a new environment, trying things and being amazing, some paths she tries don’t end well but she just works it out, retraces her steps and finds a new path, navigating the confusion of a new place, like a medieval maze (we’ve been there too!) and forging forward always. I don’t feel worthy of being proud but.. I am.. My heart is bursting with pride, watching her work her magic, finding her way. I hold her and encourage and support her as I can but she does this alone and I watch in awe, my goddess, rising from the earth and taking another challenge on, watching my angel fly.

I sit here in clothes that are related to us, jeans that are ours in so many ways and have travelled with us on our adventures, the shirt that I was wearing on the day that she let me take her in my arms and and and, the socks I bought anxiously waiting for her while she visited with an elderly relative, the underwear she bought for me on my birthday and made me cry. I am an embodiment of us, a walking example of our love, of my love for her. She works at a computer with gifts from me in plain sight, in her hand, trinkets really, but meaningful beyond compare, my love for her, right there in her plain sight.

She often says how she should be more like me, more this or more that but I refute that, we are crazy about each other for all the reasons we are, because we balance each other, together we make sense, together we compliment each other and are the best of everything. Together we have found a love, a passion, a mating that surpasses everything that has come before, on all levels, intellectual, physical, spiritual, soulful. Nothing matters, anything goes when we hold each other virtually or physically. The world falls away and everything feels Oh.So.Right. It’s a challenge to us because it’s broken some rules we hold dear but our love, our attraction, surpasses everything and, together, there is nothing greater.

I have never felt so close, so ignited, so capable, so awakened in every way. Are we apart? Yes. Will we be together? Yes. Will the next chapter of our lives make the rest pale into insignificance? Yes. I feel that from the bottom of my soul to the tips of the hairs on my body that stand aloft when she speaks. Yes. We are a couple.

We are a couple when we talk about children (Present and future) about sensibilities and values, about wanting the best and valuing patience given, now and by our own parents. It’s like understanding the world anew with her. How did I never notice it existed before? No matter, it’s here when I look in her eyes, at her beautiful face, when I hold her hand in mind (and and and).

We are a couple when I would happily say “I forsake all others for her”, but it’s a stupid statement, I want no one else but her, to be in her arms (and and) is bliss like I have never known and I crave nothing more than her and oh boy, how I crave..

Lord. You have broken some rules by bringing us together but clearly, it was meant to be, guide us both with what we need to weather the storm and find the next chapter, I am on my knees to you always.

Universe, well, hey there.. I’m keeping up with the visualizations, where are you at?

My Love, my goddess, I’ve missed writing to you, for you, for us. It’s not my greatest work but it’s a start. I love you and hope you take my hand and think of us as a couple in every sense of the word. You activate me as I support you. Fly high but hold my hand my angel. The pedestal is all yours my love, my goddess. I love you, hold me tight and run to me without barriers.
