Dear love
sometimes I can't sleep at night because I'm staring at the ceiling and all I can think of is you
your face haunts me in a beautifully painful way every time I close my eyes
Dear love
once I held my breathe till my face turned purple and in those thirty seconds I realized my purpose in life was to help everyone I meet
yet you help me every time you hold my hand and I worry I can't help you
Dear love
I used to be worried that my heart was empty and barren but since you've touched my cheek that first night I realized you were causing flowers to grow in the darkness
you've unraveled me like a spool of thread and yarn and are knitting and interweaving our souls together
Dear love
in this short amount of time I've known you you've managed to make me go back on every promise I made to myself the last time I got broken
every time you touch me you set me on fire but yet you keep me from burning and I'm still complete yet warmed in ways I thought impossible
Dear love
I think what I'm trying to say is I'm falling in love with you
