All he wanted to do was write love letters in the sand and then send them out to sea where they would by carried by the waves and the tides and then have them float up into the night where the stars would read them to the soft spots of the pink ribbons tied around her dreams and he walked and wondered through the shores of eternity at the edge of where all the oceans end and only love stories held by the promise of forever are told and on every grain of sand he engraved her name and in the mist of the falling waves he could feel the wonder of her heart press and cling to the marrow of his soul and he felt the magic that lived in the deep blue pools of her eyes spread through his pulse and mix with his blood and he was helpless as it infected his every cell and his every dream and he was terrified and thrilled and he wanted to run and he wanted to stay even more and he saw the rest of his possible life in perfect clarity and she had stumbled into his life and rearranged the shattered pieces of his heart and made it into something more beautiful than it had ever been before and it looked and felt as if it had never been broken even once and there was no trace of its many scars and his heart had never beat and drum as loud as it did when dreaming of the love it wanted to share with her and he wished he could find the courage to write her a love letter made out of the sand and the sea and the magic of the shores found in the eternity of her eyes and take her by the hand and float her up to the night and the stars above where all the oceans end and then read her his letter inked by the promises of forever and then look up to see if she had stayed or if like a dream to good to be true would he wake up and watch her slowly fade away to the memory of lost hopes and he wandered through his doubts and fears and made a pen out of his dreams and began to write the letter begining with her name followed by the three words he first heard echoing in his heart the first night she stumbled into his life
