I saved the receipt from the butcher because you picked the good cut.

I feel warm remembering you slipped my hand during the walk.

I appreciate how you dry the coffee ring from the table without asking.

I want to be the one you tell the dumb details to at midnight.

I’m thankful you sent that photo from the cafe today.

I noticed your shoelaces were untied and I tied them for you.

I keep replaying your “okay” in my head and it comforts me.

I miss the small argument we had about which film to watch.

I value how you check the drain before leaving the shower.

I smiled at your old sweater draped over the chair and thought of you.

I want to plan a Tuesday evening with you, nothing special, just us.

I felt lighter after our call; thank you for staying.

I like that you remember to water the basil on the windowsill.

I feel safer knowing you’ll drive when the roads are bad.

I kept the napkin you scribbled on so I could see your handwriting.

I enjoy the way you hum when you’re washing dishes.

I like hearing your keys on the door, even after a long day.

I want to keep the playlist you made me for rainy afternoons.

I’m glad you read the article I sent and messaged back.

I like that you always steal the last slice and pretend you didn’t.

I still have the ticket stub from that film you suggested.

I feel light when you answer my late texts.

I appreciate how you choose the quietest route home.

I noticed you left your pen on my notebook and it made me happy.

I love the way you correct the oven timer, even if it’s tiny.

I feel calmer knowing you’ll be there if my bike breaks down.

I like how you fold the corner of every receipt—it's you.

I’m grateful you stayed on the phone with me when I couldn’t sleep.

I keep your jacket on the chair because it smells like your soap.

I smiled when you tucked your hair behind your ear in the car.

I want to hold the list of groceries you leave on the fridge.

You made my burnt toast taste better and I noticed.

I miss the small sound you make when you wake up.

I like sitting with you on the couch while you scroll through recipes.

I noticed you tucked the blanket around my feet and I didn’t say anything, but I loved it.

I want to tell you about the dumb thing that happened today because you’ll laugh.

I kept your chipped mug on the counter so you could find it this morning.

You make hesitation feel less heavy.

I smiled because I remembered how you always unwrap gum with two quick snaps.

You make food taste slightly better.
