I love you.
A declaration I sneaked in as we friends joke.

Caleb says no no no, I love you more.
I disagree.

I confess how I love her like the moon loves the oceans. Night after night Luna stairs down at her beloved,
Casting her gentle glow on her face.

But the waters care not.
At night they only have eyes for the promised dawn.

I say how I am like Luna. I see my beloved in the distance.
Close but so far.

But I will always be out done by the sun.

Once in a great while,
I block out the sun.
Even if for only a brief moment,
The Grace of the waters see me.

It is those moments that keep me alive.

Even if I died, my love would live on.

Like ever present Luna I would always watch over the waters.

I would because truly Loving someone means wanting the best for them,
Even if their best doesn't include you in their life.
For her. My secret Love never known. Never may she know...
