To my Nelly

Today

I don’t even know where to start but I just know I needed to tell you how amazing you are to me. You’re not just beautiful, you’re this perfect mix of sweetness, fire, and strength that makes you unforgettable.

I love the way you make me laugh without even trying, the way your words can calm me down when my mind is a mess, and the way you make me feel like I matter — really matter. You don’t even realize how much light you bring into my life.

You’ve been there for me without asking for anything in return, and that means more than I can explain. You make the hard days easier and the good days unforgettable.

You’re smart, you’re caring, you’re stubborn in the best way, and you have this kind of magic that makes everything feel warmer. You’re the kind of person people dream about finding and somehow, I got lucky enough to find you.

So thank you — for being you, for letting me be part of your life, and for making me feel like the luckiest man in the world every single day.

With all my love,
— Your Pookie Luis
