I’m yours. I am yours in every way words cannot express. With you, I never want to rush that sentence; the apostrophe can wait... because that space is only for you. Because I am yours and I’ll stay. I will stay to trace our names in the dust we gather. I will not hide the 'w' or the 'i' because every letter is the promise I make to you. I will love you with every extra breath elisions dare to take.
