Life lately

Wind lightly brushing our hair

Hands intertwined

Our souls connected

Letting the words leave my mouth

Expressing how much you mean to me while we're here together

Same but different

Gratitude is what I feel, while you feel heaviness

Under the moonlight you peeled back your layers

I didn't realize you felt that way

Listening to your vulnerable words makes me feel sorry

The glimmer in your eyes is not from joy

Dear sunset couple

Love languages are important. Physical touch is a love language that is number one for a handful of my friends. While sitting here to watch the sunset with my dear friend, we talked about their relationship and how their need for physical touch was not met. PDA isn’t for everyone and that’s ok, but their partner at the time didn’t want to even sit close like this. My dear friend expressed the want to feel their partner’s close presence. Reader, would you think love languages should be matched from the beginning or can this be something someone should change for another? My dear friend and I admired this sunset couple. Notice how they aren’t overly touchy. The two are simply sitting side by side; arms gently pressed together to assure the other that they are there. An innocent display of touch.
