My communication skills are as bad as my handwriting is. But my kisses are as good as my intentions, so you can go ahead and place your smile onto my lips. Too often the pronunciation of your name is mistaken for Keanu Reevesβ character in The Matrix. I dug my own grave right after the masquerade, but when you came along, I swear everything had changed. I tossed the shovel to the ground and began searching for better days in a city where we both wanted to safe and sound. We shared our first kiss over pizza, a bottle of red wine and sporadic bursts of love and laughter. I may have lost your love, but I havenβt lost all the wonderful words I still have to write about love. In the beginning, I always hoped that this love would have a happy ending. But it only ended in me writing poems about how we both lost out on this wonderful love.
