Labor Day

There was a point during our team's reign when you were standing across from me and I looked at you and I had the thought, good God, how can this be real/happening. And in some ways it makes me so nervous. You think for so long about what you would want in a partner, and you make compromises your whole life because that other person doesn't really exist. And then you find it and it is terrifying and amazing and easy and hard and wonderful, all at the same time. And then later under the stars and how you get nervous too and the way that you bite your lip and I just can't get over that this is real.
