For you my dear

in #poetry7 years ago

firstly, i love you.

i read the words of cummings and auden
and each word that i read is you.
their words fit as perfectly as you and i.

i am blinded. ignorant and blinded.
for i see the world as ours.

you are the one, the only one who truly knows who i am.
we live in a village of strangers
pretending to be a world of lives that they are not,
pretending to be comfortable,
pretending nobody knows.
we know.
and in this place, in this weather…
we’ll find comfort together.

the whole world could pass me by
but the songs of sweet melody i hear
are the words uttered by you.

you are nothing i have ever seen.

forgive me for
i believe.

i believe in you, i believe in me, i believe in us.

you made be believe

you are my pride.

the death of night.
the length of light.
you are it all.

we will conquer great heights. break boundaries. live in the stars
and by god we will love as no one has loved before.

you are my everything.

i see our lives before us. shining so bright.
the winds of sorrow.
the joys of tomorrow.

i fear not fate.
i fear not destiny.
for you are my fate, my destiny.

i have no fear for
we will be great.
we are great.

you are spring
and last spring my life began.

i see us crunching through the fire drops of autumn
trees

splashing through the depressed winter blues

growing freely through the fields of spring and
humming through the fans of late summer nights

i see the colour of the world around us change as we turn grey.

each moment of life i live from now, i live it by your side. we are the ever shining, ever bright, salt sprinkles of the night's sky.

you are my words.

all that remains is us.
two letters that will never change.
us. we. lo. ve.

the sun will lie.
the trees will leave.
the world will turn indefinitely.

we will cry. we will crush each others dreams. we will break and be broken.

but i believe.

i believe we will survive. i believe we will dream. i believe we will last for eternity…

we may forget us. we. lo. ve.
we may leave for periods of forever,
but i want you to keep close to your heart
that i will love you forever.

'til the woods are clear and the rain is gone,
'til the stars no longer see.

'til people stop changing,
'til forever.

let us complete the list
let us fill blank pages
let us live like we have never lived before
let our spirits dance into flight,
grow wings and join the eternity of nothingness.
let us love.
let us discover
let us be us.
let us be

forever.
