A Letter To My Beloved

Oh my Beloved,

Thank you for being you,
so savage a voice such a soft touch;
I know how gentle feels,
in the harshness of your arms 
and the tenderness of your words;    

Sparks that only become amplified 
when I  see the flame in your eyes
and watch it burn;
 An endless ocean 
that I know you would cross or destroy 
for me;

Thank you;

I succumb to this poetic awakening 
I was hiding for so long;
You are the rhythm in between my lines
an electric current that shocked my soul;
So pardon these rhymes and ramblings 
You make it hard for me to speak;
So,I thought I would write you a letter 
Throw up a cliche’ and say, 

I love you my Beloved;
I am so glad you’re you.
