The Confession Letter

When I first saw you,

My heart knew its beat,

Like it was my first time in love,

Where I danced on your feet.

The way your eyes form hearts

When you look at me,

Where I thrive in chaos,

You’re my calming sea.

Promise me,

You’ll hold my hands,

That you’ll hold me close,

While we walk these lands.

Promise me,

You’ll be my breath in water,

Harder when it becomes,

You won’t let me shatter.

Now, love me like those poets,

Love me like those obsessions,

Call me desperate when I say,

“I Love You.”

truly and dearly.
