Thank You, Love
I know Valentine's Day is over, but do we really need a designated day to express what we feel? Write a letter, poem, whatever you want to a future lover or your current partner, whoever you want in a romantic setting. Free for all. I suggest a message of positivity/gratitude, but you can take it wherever the prompt takes you :) Tag me in a comment (not the work cause I won't see it) if you want me to read and comment @tornesornerob

Letter In The Window Of My Mind

Will these words ever touch your mind, hold your heart gently?

Will you think me too pushy? Too quiet? Too shy? Perhaps I am.

When I see you, even if but a glimpse, I feel struck as if by a force of nature to just take you up in my arms and cradle you next to me. To hear and feel your breath across my cheek. To listen and rtemember the sound of your laughter. And if need be, to be there to wipe away your tears.

I don't say all this because I am lonely and starved for attention for I have many friends. I just don't have that one "special friend" I want to grow old with.

It's more than just sharing ideas and values; more even than making love no matter how passionate we may become. It's more about the knowing, learning, and placing our faith and trust in each other, and I so want to know everything about you.

I sometimes think, were I a rich man, you would have but only to ask, but I am poor, and you walk through me, and will never know the depth of emotion I feel. I guess in an ungodly way, I need to have you in my life.

Neither of us are true perfection and I would certainly never put you on a pedastal, but rather have us face to face on equal footing, supporting each other no matter the storm in front of us.

If by chance you find this letter, at least tell me true if you would be the half I am not without you.
