Sincerely Yours

 

I always hoped to have something ideal, but you were my perfection

The mere thoughts of us drinking beer and throwing cans at pigeons

Maybe a little too underwhelming than feeding pigeons and watching them fly

I always figured I would write to you while we watched the stars from a gondola

The silent waters soothing us, and the music in our head intriguing us

You were my ideal perfection and I, your hopeless in love subject

Love was complicated, but I was willing to keep trying

Forever was a bit scary, but I was ready to take on the world

Hope was a dash overrated, but I was destined to pursue you

A goddess with the flight of an angel, and the glow of an incandescent day

A goddess with the intrigue of artistry, and intrigue beyond the stars

I wrote about you every day, and yet watched you smile from a distant

I knew your usual walk, favorite place, and maybe your favorite people

I prayed for you every night, and gracefully sighed at dawn

Another day to adore you, another day for you to intrigue me

You were my best-kept secret, and you refreshed the thought of life

I should have walked up to you and said I liked you

I should have given you my constant writings about you

But you were within my grip as long as I never made my move

Maybe you would be lost forever if I said what I really felt

I wanted you to be my forever, even if it was from a distance

Even when the rain pours, I still see perfection in a world you exist

Yours sincerely, the lost soul yearning to be your forever
