An Outspoken Soliloquy of Love

please read this, i wrote this for you.

i’ve been searching for the right words and the right terms,

but my thoughts knotted and tangled

so everything and nothing was being said at once.

.

how could i string vowels and consonants to appease you?

because look,

what a strange being you are.

never knew a storm could looked so much like sunset.

and i want to be with you,

it is as simple and as complicated as that.

a simple

complicated

perfectly flawed mess.

days elapsed,

nights passed,

and the whole world seemed to spin around me in smooth jazz.

.

but perhaps you know,

that for me

love is a daunting kind of fear.

a feeling I’m escaping.

but on nights like this, I wasn’t so sure.

on nights like this,

i’m grateful for so much,

but especially for you.

.

i wish time lingers a long time for you and me.

.

sometimes i feel like my life is unmanageable,

and i would like to share it with you.

.
