Dear tender heart stead fast,
let's not get ahead of ourselves.
It was one conversation.
One beautiful, romantical conversation.
I didn't know what he looked like
Or what color his skin was
If he came from wealth or poverty
Or the indifferences that we have yet to uncover
His height mattered not to me
Or the moments of awkward silence,
that was shared in between.
The only thing that mattered were his words
and his passion for thoughts.
Thoughts that people wouldn't think to foresee.
We didn't just talk of politics,
Nor the matter of affair and state.
We spoke of silly nonsense,
that had us laughing and giggling for days.
I constantly would check my mail
Seeing if he had sent a letter or note,
And day after day he would.
And day after day I wrote
Everyday he would encourage me to finish my schooling
And to promise to study hard
"You have such a kind heart darling,
I couldn't imagine you doing any other job."
Each night I would kiss those bulk of letters
And slip them gently underneath my pillow
Keeping his words close to mind & body
Spirit & Soul
We have only been talking for awhile,
but each day my heart has grown.
My waking thoughts are consumed of him
And my dreams are of you
Of us
Please keep him for me
And allow him to stay close
For he is who I love
And to him I fully devote
