So I've decided to write you
a love letter.

and this is it,
here,
words dropping from
my bones like
autumn
trees release
their leaves,
&
undress for
winter

Darling,
you are a
forest where
I want to run
and climb
the fallen trees
to count the rings
in all your
whisperings

where flowers
grow like
laughter grows
and I welcome
every bit of light
or shadow cast
behind your
budding
woodland
where I can
feed your
Arcadia

So here I
hope the sun
will always birth your
hopes and
nurse away
your sorrows.
