Candidness

That's what I'm striving for here

Won't be the most eloquent poem

Yet here goes

I love you

Did you hear me?

I love you

I'm in love with you

I don't recall when it happened

I'm just delighted that it did

To swipe a famous movie line

You complete me

You make me look forward to each day

You make me laugh and smile

You make me feel whole

These last few weeks

I've learned something

I'm incomplete without you

Every day can be described as blah

Any laughter or smile is much less vibrant

When I'm asleep I dream of you

When I'm awake I fantasize about you

I wonder how you are, what you're doing

I want to reach out to you

Yet fear continuously holds me back

But you know what?

Forget fear

It may kiss my you know what

I wouldn't blame you if you turned away

Yet I've been encouraged to at least try

I apologize for my recent behavior

Please, oh God, please don't blame yourself

It's all on my shoulders

My issues with myself

My insecurities and pessimism

I shoved you away

Because I didn't deem myself good enough

Do I now believe that I am?

No, but I'm working on it

I have every intention of being good enough

You said we could work on it together

While I declared that distance was the answer

I was exceedingly wrong

You're my beautiful sun

Without you I'm lost in the dark

We had a sixty-five year plan

I'd be eternally grateful

If it could be reinstated

As I'd adore reaching my golden years

With you, only you

I love you

Did you hear me?

Oh my goodness

How I love you

I'm so in love with you

I don't recall when it happened

I'm just delighted that it did

And I promise you, Charlie

That I will love you

Until time no longer exists
