博謙&雅慧

Before I met you, I loved the mountains, because there I didn’t need to talk or be understood — I could give myself over completely and sleep soundly. After I met you, I still love the mountains, but because of you I no longer need to carry a pack into the hills in search of peace. You are the medicine that calms my heart.

You said you love the sea, because every deep dive feels like returning to your mother’s womb, where there is enough nourishment to fill what’s missing in your life. I don’t know if I can become the ocean that nourishes you, but I can fill the blank on your ID card, so you’ll never be alone again. Then you looked at me and said: if I am the sea, then you are the lonely island in it — no coordinates, impossible to locate — but I always know where you are, and I’ll always hold you gently. My tides have meaning because of you.
