i need to write something beautiful and fresh
and close to the purity inside a raindrop
(straight from heaven)
i miss having the perfect lines to tell a story
to end a life with love
the best endings are pouring out with love
begging you to pay special attention
to each consonant
the important ones
and the others
i trust that you would read each syllable
and understand how they were written for you
specifically chosen
with your happiness in mind
and the impending smile that forms as you reach the end
knowing how each and every letter
is for you
i have no desire to win you over
(because you are mine
like i am yours)
but i trust you because i have found
that now
there is nothing left for me to do
i believe in you and where you are headed
as long as i am with you
i get to be a part of all the amazing things you create
my faith is better served in your company
because it was created in you
with you
for you
i witness you
speaking to every open ear
i love when you tell them about your life
including the parts about me
the happy
the sad
everything
i wanted to write profoundly
beautifully
every detail about what you do for them
what you do for me
painting a picture of you
heroically standing in front of lost faces giving them hope
your hope
telling them amazing stories about how you live your life
your semi-charmed life
your painful life
and those hopeful faces find themselves in you
just because you lived through it
and your still so alive
there’s just one thing more they crave
it’s not much
but you owe it to them
the reasons
you’ve shared your life
now
let them know why you’re living it
they need a reason too
i wanted to write something beautiful and fresh
to reflect my feelings
to write something just for you
so you know that my reason
for hanging in there
for living
is you
Thank you for this. Thank you so very much. I don't know what else to say, but I am not going anywhere. I will never leave you, I will never hurt you, I will always love you.
