A Love Letter: Pigerton Event

Dearest Taegen,

I was wondering how to even start this letter to you in all honesty, so please do not be too upset this is arriving so late in time. I found myself constantly in wondering what words you drip onto the paper, how your flamboyant ways seem to ease in everything you do. I was hoping perhaps I could take some of your own charm, and give you something as much as you have given to me. So maybe in this love letter to you, it can be something you can hold close and keep you going on times I am lost, or when the time comes that I am no longer here. Just something to remind you how admittedly that I loved you, from the very beginning.

With every great love there is always that first moment, I would never admit openly it was love at first sight, but I suppose with who and how you are, was there any way to avoid it. Do you remember the first time we met? How you nearly singed my braid. I have to say it left a good impression on me, so much so I couldn’t keep my eyes off of you. I'm sure you noticed, I felt as if everyone did, I don't recall how many times I was scolded at practice. How each time you danced and moved, with that fire of yours, my eyes would linger to catch a glimpse of you.

Like a moth drawn to the flame, I was enraptured by your beauty, your attitude, how you glowed with life. I wanted to be that too, but my timid nature did not allow such thoughts to even bloom, yet how tenacious are you though. You saw right through me, you saw something worth the risk, you sparked my dying heart, giving it a second chance at life. You saved me time and time again, I am in awe of your endless kindness and love. You made me feel loved, made me find worth in myself, even on the quiet days I can’t stand.

Taegen, I know I am not long for this world, A fact we both can easily see. But I hope you continue to love, continue to show the world the softness in you, the beauty you have to capture hearts, to make them feel alive again. I hope you touch the hearts of many, I hope you give them the will to dream again, to seek out their own happiness. In the end perhaps I am selfish, my love for you is endless. I want to spend the rest of my days for you, till the bitter end. But I hope that this world gives you back everything you have given it. That you find meaning in everything you do, that you smile, laugh and cry and feel everything to the fullest. Sorry this letter ended up being so tragic, but you know me, realistic till the very end.

So let me end with this then. You are forever mine, and I am forever yours, till our last breath is drawn. So let's live our moments to the fullest, let's travel farther than others have seen. Let us do all the things we always said we would do, like go to that small shop in that alley, to try that new fruit I've had my eyes on. Lets see the ocean one more time, let our love be witnessed in every corner, so everywhere we look, we will feel the overwhelming love for each other. Wouldn’t that be just grand?

Forever Yours
