Bronwin Aurora, Lilah Lovesyou -
And that, perhaps, is enough.
Bronwin, for her part, feels it. Of course she feels it. How could she not? Lilah’s love is not the kind you miss; it is the kind that drowns you, fills every corner of your being until you forget what it was like to be empty. Bronwin feels it in the way Lilah looks at her across a crowded room—like she is the only person in existence, and everyone else is merely a shadow. She feels it in the way Lilah remembers the small things: the name of her childhood pet, the way she takes her coffee, the song that makes her cry every time. She feels it in the way Lilah’s hand finds hers under the table, in the way Lilah’s voice drops to a whisper when she says her name. bronwin aurora, lilah lovesyou
The Aurora and the Vow
Lilah loves you.
But Lilah is patient.
It is not a demand. It is not a plea. It is a gift, offered freely, with no strings attached. And one day, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday—Bronwin Aurora will stop running. She will turn around, and she will see Lilah standing there, arms open, heart exposed. And she will finally understand that some loves are not meant to be feared. Some loves are meant to be held, cherished, and returned. And that, perhaps, is enough
