This is probably the least exciting love letter you've ever read. Maybe my love for you doesn't excite you, it doesn't feel like a challenge or like anything you can win.
I don't want you to win me, I don't want there to be a winner. I want truth, understanding. I want you to see in me what I see in you. I want to give you, to show you, life.
But you already have that, you can learn nothing from me; you can use my brain to think, you can use every part of my being, but you can never learn from me.
This isn't my love for you that writes these lines; my love for you is happy, sunny, green, it is filled with memories of your smile and brown eyes. This is my premature regret, my fear of losing you, my acknowledgement of the free will you gave me, the one that I cannot bring myself to use to make you feel this void inside me that calls your name.
Maybe this is a plea, a way for me to beg you to accept me. Maybe it's reassuring to think that if I say it a certain way, it might disgust you less. I don't want to repel you.
This is a paragraph from a love letter I wrote. It is the only paragraph that makes sense in the letter. It is the only one that truly communicates my feelings. I think that writing for no reason, or without intention, brings me closer to a certain truth, to my 'soul'. Here, I expressed what I feel for her. Maybe it made sense to me because I wrote about the fear of not speaking, instead of the mystery we call love.

Why is it that a stranger's gaze is the only thing that truly comforts me
