From me to you + me + us

Today is your birthday again. It’s the 25th year you walk this Earth. On your first birthday you celebrated at a house that you don’t remember as home. Ironic right? You’ve never known what home really felt like. On your second, third, fourth and fifth you don’t remember anything. Your sixth though, you had a great time. A Tarzan themed birthday party. So big, so great.

On your seventh your parents were no longer together. Your birthday was on a Sunday, and you had a good time. The next day you almost died. A goal post fell on your head, leaving you bed ridden instead. But its you, you are a fighter. Nothing gets you down. You couldn’t get up for a month. But then you relearned how to walk. And then to run. And you continued running through the years.

On your ninth birthday you were too anxious about the complexities of what heaven and hell were like. On your tenth, you changed schools and didn’t know that before your eleventh you’d be making changes about your life: another new school, new friends, new country, new family, new word to learn to call home.

You also don’t remember your 12th birthday, but 13th you had that kidney stones operation. Your fourteenth was a sleepover with your friends. 15th a barbecue. Either 16th or 17th you had a party with friends. 18th you went to your first club, it wasn’t a great night but you had fun. 19th you spent in your home country. Its your infamous surprise pool party. Your dad was annoyed, your friends drunk, and the police knocked at your door twice asking for the noise to be down.

In your 20th you were at University. On your 21st you went to York. Your 22nd your best friend baked you a cake. On your 23rd the boy you love, loved you back with all of his heart. On your 24th you went to a Jazz club. And today is your 25th. Again. Another year.

Over the years we have been through so much. Just you and me. Alone. And this is how it feels. I’ve got you and you got me. No one else in between. Not even our shadow. But there’s so much to be thankful for. So much that we’ve done together. We are 25. Quarter of a Century. The age of reason. And I love us. I really do. I love the person that we have become. But we still have a long way to go.

You are peace, you are life, you are love. And no one can deny that. Those around you, that really get to know who you are understand how much of an exceptional being we can be. You are caring, and dedicated and your friends know that you are considerate. You love like a mother, care like a father, and create mischief like a sibling.

You are afraid of so many things, but between the two of us we are fearless. We are so resilient. If they knock us down, they need to try harder to keep us on the ground because we will get back up. Over and over again. No matter what they say, or what they do. Yes, you will suffer and dramatise it all, but you are a hell of a tough cookie. And I love you for it.

I love how you don’t give up on people and how you are so forgiving.

I am sorry that we don’t feel loved though. From the bottom of my heart I do. And as the years go by I feel that we just need to accept this feeling. We will always be incomplete. We can’t get our white picket fence and unconditional love. We are not worthy of someone’s love but only our own. And this is what we are going to do. Love each other. In our 25th I will love you more. And show you it.

We will do so much more together. We will travel, and get fit. Learn new things. You will laugh more and know how to articulate your opinions. You will do what you do best. This year you will treat yourself and grow. It’s the year of being self-sufficient. And efficient. But never negligent.

You will swallow your pride a lot more, and filter your emotions. You will get through all of your heartache and move on from the past. All the things that are holding you down. I command you to deal with it. It’s not fair on either of us. It’s not fair on anybody. If we we are going to be happy there are things that we must do.

Godman you are so difficult. And you know just how to play the role. And this terrifies you because by being difficult you believe is difficult to love you. That no one will. No one does. No one will learn how to. Your own parents don’t love you for who you are, so why else someone would too? You are not enough. You are just basic, and mediocre. You are a passenger or a pit stop. Not a destination or the full ride. Your friends love you. But they don’t need you. Your parents want the best for you, but they don’t get you. You can be a lot of darkness. And it sucks because you are my saboteur.

You struggle to be vulnerable because you feel so much. And you don’t cry because you won’t be able to cry enough.

You are an artist, and a façade. And I love you for that. Such a fluid capacity. You don’t have a space. You create them. You move around and shape shift. That’s adaptability. You are like jello being pinned to the wall. Impossible to figure out.

We are empowering. We cut the bullshit and make sure that everyone around us feels great. We are so simple minded. We are cynical too. And optimistic and pessimistic, and so full of hope and faith. We are Mr Brightside.

We are who we are. And we’ve got each other. We came together, we’ll leave together. And I love you for that.
