im so grateful for my partner.
my soulmate.
no matter how cruel the world, our home we built together is the sweetest peace I've ever known.
I look forward to growing older and older with him, raising a village of bunnies, until we're a lovely pile of bones. no one will be able to tell us apart or tear us apart ʚ ᰔ ɞ
8:47pm. arabic love songs. did you know that there is a whole song dedicated to you?
when you are sad, I’ll call for your mother to ask how the crescent moon can turn full again. I’ll ask her how to wipe your tears and clear the sky, let rain be replaced by sunshine.
when you are angry, I will look for your father in your eyes, soften your heart in a little bowl of rice milk. when you kiss me, I’ll taste all the anger melting away. you’ll taste like paradise, albi, like the lips of Adam tasting the forbidden apple except this is real, this is earth and we will never lose this Eden.
habibi, I love you even in pain, even in anger. I will leave lavender under your pillow so your dreams are lilac, like a sunset over the Mediterranean. I will make you a cup of Turkish tea so you remember that the world is still sweet even when it is cruel. I will tell you in our mother tongue that my heart bleeds only for you.
