“I couldn’t have dreamed you into existence because I didn’t even know I needed you. You must have been sent to me.”

“I'm not here to grant you the extraordinary love you never had for yourself. I'm here, on my own accord, to love you. So that when you stare into my mirror eyes, you may see how extraordinary you are.”

“Missing you,
I missed a part of me
I shared with you
that’s now gone.
Missing you,
when really,
it was the way you made me feel
and the things you made us do.
Missing you
I shouldn’t be.
But I can’t help missing
who I was with you.
Missing you,
I missed
and missed so much of the world
and wasn’t even missed in return.”

“I haven’t written you a poem in years it seems.
How can it be my fault
when the words to describe you have not yet been created?
When the alphabet lacks the very letters?
How can it be my fault
when your loveliness only grows
by the time I reach for pen and paper?
Tell me how I am at fault
when I am only a beginner in poems
and you are exquisite poetry?
To write you in words
is to put a veil upon you.
Why must I write
when I can kiss you instead?”
