Love Letter - My Sweet Poison

You.

Oh, you.

You are what keeps me up all night.

And I do not mean that I cannot sleep at night.

Wouldn’t that be easy?

If that was what lay heavily between us.

I mean you are the one that invades my unconsciousness.

You are my walls.

Against which the strengths of my character clash.

You are my thing

You are my thing that kills me.

You are my thing I think about when a line comes up in a movie.

You are my default shell.

The room I run into when life happens.

So why do I write to you?

Because I love you restlessly.

Without knowing what to do or how to show you.

I love you fiercely.

It’s a love that makes me want to give to you, the world.

I love you overwhelmingly.

It’s a love that builds me with joy and destroys me with worry.

So intensely that I want to heal every hurt you have suffered.

I want to pamper your mind, carry you through the future. That way, no hurt may come to you.

I love you.
My sweet poison, my delicious scar.

I love you.

Utterly. Ferociously. Relentlessly.
