I’ve always dreamed that one day we would meet up and rekindle our eternal love for one another. Now that dream has come true. I never knew it was possible to love anyone the way I love you. Thank you for being here and for loving me.

Yours forever.

I haven’t told you how I feel. To do so is to be vulnerable. ..vulnerable to whatever it is your reaction may be. I cherish what we have so much that I’ve lived in denial about my true feelings. I have never before had such a healthy, dynamic relationship with a member of the opposite sex as I have with you. Denying how I feel safeguards our relationship from the adverse effects letting you know could have. More so, failing to recognize how I feel about you should make it easier when you find another beautiful, loving woman and decide to spend your life with her instead of with me, right? But you know what, I can’t deny it anymore. The truth is that I love you. Yes, I said it. I faced up to the fact and told you something I’ve never told another man. I Love YOU. I don’t know what you think this past year and a half has been, but however you classify it, you have to admit that it has been pretty amazing.

As I have observed, we go through our dating years spending various amounts of time with various people. At the end, we walk away from those experiences having a fuller picture of the person we want to spend our lives with. Each person and each story gives us a small piece of what we hope to find in our own spouse (and sometimes what we pray we never find.) After years of picking up pieces, the puzzle is complete. I know you’re not perfect by any means but I also know that I can’t imagine living my life with anyone but you. Being honest with myself about how I feel for you is scary. You’ve set the bar so high that, if for whatever reason God does not have us in one another’s future, I’m afraid I’ll never find another person who measures up to what it is you are. I do believe one can genuinely love another yet not end up with them. I’m scared… scared that will be what happens and that I’ll be left here not knowing what to do with my love for you. I know time heals and I’m sure that if such is to be the plight of “us,” that God will grant me the grace and wisdom to know what to do. But, for the time being, I tremble at the vulnerability I face as I strip my heart naked before you and tell you the truth. As scary as it is, I know there is no other way. I could walk away from you in December thankful for what we’ve had yet knowing that you never knew exactly what my heart wanted to say to you. But I know if I let that happen I will always regret not knowing if you felt the same thing. You’ve been the kindest, most sincere, genuine, loving, funny, and intelligent man I’ve ever met. You are so much more than what my meager words can express. You truly are amazing and you deserve to know that. You deserve the absolute best. I have so much love for you I pray that if I am not the best for you that I can rejoice in your happiness when you find the woman who is.

I love you.

It has been a real tough and unsteady path for us,
Parent objections, and peoples who tried to come between us…, affairs and all..
It has been tough, n there are times, i asked myself: should i trust and love this man again?
N my answer will always be a yes,
I’m not giving up on you not now n not in the future either.
We’ll make this work=)
N i will never give up on you n this relationship till you throw in the white flag.
That’s how in love i am with you.

Yours lovingly,
Michelle Natasha

I’m not sure if its love.
I’m young, and naive, and I’m an open book.
I’ve had my ups and downs though, especially with this one.
I was getting off of a bad relationship, it was all downhill.
I’m pretty strong in front of people, its all good until I’m alone and I have too much time to think about what’s happened.
This boy, honestly, he showed up out of nowhere.
I knew him, we were both in English class together since….7th grade.
Well he just showed up, sat in front of me, and talked.
Just talked.
Like it was perfectly normal to just rattle on and on about so many motley topics with a girl you rarely ever talked to.
I had a dead face on. Someone had taken a picture and recently showed it to me; my face screamed “I’m a disaster in a can! Someone send out the knight already!”
I think it was supposed to be him.
Eventually I feel for him, HARD.
And in what? 3, 4 days?
And BAM!
He gets a girlfriend
“What happened?” “WTF?!? HE LIKES YOU THOUGH! LOOK AT HIS FACE!” “I can’t believe it, he was so into you”
But it was the end of the year, we were graduating, it was all over.
So me and my brightness, decided to tell him.
He deserved to know, did he not?
So I told him on my birthday, after he gave me a cake he made.
I haven’t talked to him since.
But I think he needs to know
I still love him.
I wouldn’t marry him, but he’s not leaving my heart anytime soon.
Love ya, and you know who you are.

The Sweet Release

you, my sweet beautiful,
broken in rage,
exiled from laughter,
by your own dismay.

you, my sweet beautiful,
screams for a voice
to unleash songs of sorrow,
and sing your joys away.

you, my sweet beautiful,
feels trapped in a cage,
stands on the grave of freedom,
still so afraid.

yes, you… my sweet beautiful,
now lend me your ear
to whisper a secret forgotten,
one I hold dear.

that you are my sweet beautiful,
come now, let go and see
you were destined to smile
that very, very moment…
the one you came to be.
