i wrote this for you, my first love. before we broke up, i promised you that i will write you a book and here it is. i'll always stay true to my words even if you weren't. my heart, perhaps, will heal and learn how to love again but a piece of it will always be with you. you might come across this some day because i showed you this before and i used to read you my poems. i hope, on that day, you'd know what i meant when told you that i love you for the first time.
J, you will always be my favorite poem, verse in a song, line in a movie, and my ever favorite of all. every word i breathe is your name. no matter how long the day is, whether you no longer think of me, i will always come home to you.
to j, my poetry and past lover, you left me, and here is what comes after.
