10 Three Line Love Letters for the Love of my Life

I. Your touch is like bones breaking; unforgettable, and breathtaking.    I know that normally people don't associate love with broken bones   but even when you cause me pain, I am still so effortlessly in love. II. On the day that you made me yours,      you rekindled a fire in me that I thought     had long since died. III. And in those eyes that resemble speckled emeralds,       I see a future brighter than I could have made for myself.      The feeling is treacherous, to love someone more than yourself. IV. The thought of you lingers in my bone marrow,       and it doesn't leave, not even in sleep,         you live within my bloodstream. V. You ignite a fire inside me,      hotter than I knew was possible in relative existence,     and every day I burn for you, slow and consistent. VI. Sometimes I wish you would strip me down       and love me like a limited resource,       like I'm a priceless medal, or gem of iridescent hue. VII. You're the type of guy that gets me to put my phone down         and that's an accomplishment in itself.         you're more interesting than the internet, and that's romanticism. VIII. Your kiss is like electricity, but instead of electrocution,          you send shivers down my spine,         and put the sparkle in my eyes. IX. They say that home is where the heart is,       and before I met you, I'd never been home before,       you are my home. X. I've run out of words to tell you how much I love you     so now my next mission is to transcribe a new language,     to do just that.
