Dear Her,

Your the one who started it all.

When I first met you, you were an open book. I was introduced to you by a girl who didn't didn't deserve your love. The thought of the two of you together broke my heart. It was like the universe fell from your gaze like you were trapped with no way out. The girl you thought you loved at the time was too busy breaking your heart, and for what? I was overjoyed when you two split, but it felt like you never truly did until she decided that none of us were good enough to listen to. Then you moved on. I was desperate to you get your attention but it always ended in a fight. You ask me a lot whether I still like you, and you've told me to move on a lot, and I'm not sure if I ever really told you the truth of why I always wanted to be the one holding your hand instead of hers... The reason why I actually like you. And maybe one day I will. It seems the entire universe is attracted to you, but I was the only one that wasn't good enough. The two others who you though you could be happy with left dents in your soul even I can see, even to this day. You once told me that your drink to forget, but it always comes back, and that made me want to hold you even closer, though you didn't see it that way. I only wait to say 'I love you' until you say it to me, and that's been happening a lot recently.

I was inspired to write this book from yours, so I figured that I should start off with you. In your book, the first lines from the chapter about me said, "I've been told I play with your heart. Yet you have told me you want me to. Do you like feeling loved and having it pulled away?" I've never really though about the answer to that until now. I think the answer to that is yes, but only from you...

Keep letting you true colors shine because without them, I would have never found you; a star in the middle of the universe amongst all others, only able to be found by those willing to find it.

Thank you for giving me what I've always wanted

"You're a hard book to read;
with a small font and complicated plot line.
You're not paper back because your worth more,
and the cover is extraordinary.
But everything inside denies one's expectations.
And I'm not sure if I'm advanced enough to finish the book."
