Vasavi

another loop around the sun, and somehow, even from miles away, you keep finding your way into all the little corners of my life. and honestly? i wouldn't have it any other way.

this little page is a quiet thank-you. for all the laughing until we can't breathe, the endless talking about everything and absolutely nothing, the tears we've shared even through screens, and the little games that somehow turn into hours together. for every silly moment, every difficult day, every "are you there?" and every "i wish you were here."

loving you from a distance isn't always easy, but somehow, you make the miles feel a little smaller. you're my favourite notification, my partner in the most ridiculous games, my comfort on the hard days, and the person i wish i could pull into a hug whenever words just aren't enough.

today, i wish i could be there to steal a bite of your cake, annoy you in person, make you laugh at the worst possible jokes, and hold you a little longer than necessary. until i can, let this be a tiny piece of all the love i'd give you if i were right beside you.

so today, please be loved very loudly. eat the cake. wear the outfit. laugh that laugh i adore. make all your wishes, take up all the space, and remember that somewhere, a little too far away for a hug but never too far to care, there's someone who's endlessly grateful that you exist.

happy birthday, my girl. here's to more late-night conversations, more terrible jokes, more games we'll take way too seriously, more tears we'll get through together, and a thousand more little memories until one day, we don't have to say goodnight through a screen anymore.
