In Love, a Soliloquy
My heart shatters with every harsh word, saddened glance, and argument. I can feel it being ripped from my body and thrown into the depths of my stomach. The only thing that ever heals it, is your love and kindness. I am forever grateful to you for every breath I take, every sight I get to see, and every ray of sunshine I feel on my skin. Nothing comforts me more than simply being in your arms, feeling not only your warmth, but your love. I adore you with every ounce of me, your smile, your laugh, your voice, everything. Every little thing that makes you yourself paints a beautiful masterpiece, the finest work of art I’ve ever seen. You inspire me in ways I never thought possible, my poetry, my songs, my stories, my voice, and my very heart and soul are inspired by you. Although I may pour my heart and soul into my writing, it will never compare to the majesty of the masterpiece you have created by being yourself. It saddens me that, like every great artist, you are unable to see the beauty of the things you’ve created in their purest form. In light of this, I am ready to spend the rest of my life showing you your own glory. If it takes a day, or a hundred years, I will make it my life’s work to do what I do best. I will write poem after poem, song after song, story after story, simply trying to articulate the very essence of your light.
