(n.) "my moon" or "most beautiful."

 ◦◦◦ 

this is for you,

my love.

 ◦◦◦ 

sometimes i wonder

how is it that

i've been 

writing 

since i was 12

and yet

when it comes to you

it seems as though

there aren't enough

words

too little 

adjectives

mediocre

metaphors

that could even

begin

to describe

the essence that 

is 

you

sometimes i wonder

how is it that

i was able

to live

so normally

so ordinarily

without you

how was it

that i thought i knew

what happiness

felt like

when you 

didn't

come yet?

honey

please believe me

when i tell you

that i will never

be sick

of 

writing about you

because tell me this

how could i ever 

get tired

of writing

about the way

your cheeks flush

so suddenly 

that sometimes i think

my eyes are playing 

tricks with me

when 

the curl of your eyelashes
