LOVE LETTER:

You are beautiful. You have this way about you that just seems to light up the room when you walk in and it makes the atmosphere so much warmer. It's hard to describe, but when I'm with you my heart starts to pound and I wonder if you can hear it. It's this crazy feeling that I have when I'm with you, when I even think of you that makes me wonder if maybe we are meant to do something, make something of this life together.

You are so beautiful. Not just on the outside, but on the inside too. Who ever said beauty is just skin deep was wrong because you are beautiful on the outside, but beauty also runs deep in your veins and fills your voice with kindness. You are amazing. One of the single most amazing people I've ever had the honor of meeting in my life.

Ever placed your head upon a chest and listen, just listened, felt as if somehow you could reach down beneath their skin placed you hand upon the pulse of their heart and allowed your two beats, theirs and yours to meet? There are moments of silence. There are moments when there isn't a word you could say that I haven't thought, or a thought that I could voice that you haven't felt. And so we sit in these shared moments simply absorbing sound, unspoken vibrations wafting their way through the room until they reach me, until they reach you. I think it was raining - the last time I really stared at your face, mapped its curves, mapped the way the light outlined your skin. You were thinking, your thoughts far away. Then you turned and you smiled. And your thoughts may still have been at a distance but some of them were focused in my direction. Your sitting next to me right now, I'm writing this e-mail, you're drinking a latte. The music is gorgeous, new world techno with a Middle Eastern beat. The light's faded; the streetlight gone on. There's poetry in the future, and buses, cars, subway trains, and planes. But for the moment they're distant, miniature cut outs, cardboard creations, toys wrapped in presents, toys wrapped and waiting to be torn open.
