Love Letters - 0001

"I love you, you intoxicating fool.

To gaze into your eyes is to gaze into life itself. Your face is the dawn I can imagine and believe that there are still good people in the world.

Your eyes are like stars transfixed in the perfect abyss that is your face. To stare too long is like gazing into the sun, and everyday I grow as bold as Icarus daring to stare just a while longer. I sense my heart quicken when I am close to you, most certainly against my own wishes.

To behold you in your splendor is like watching perfection itself grace the room. Your warm smile, your tender eyes, and the lines etched under your eyes from exhaustion and dedication: all of it shines through, the perfectly perfect imperfection of you.

I love you, and I hate myself for it."
