The Fourth Letter

by DKY

Hair like waves of the sea Raging then, but now the calm has prevailed The sweetest thing ever that I've known of A smile that could make storms go away Confidence found in such a short stature A professional of formidable intellect My inspiration to better my career A huge motivation for my personal goals Solitude we both prefer, but then again I don't want to be alone I want to be with you someday Stay in touch, but now I'll let you be I want to know you better, and be a pillar you can rely on Please don't be burdened by my affection Just do your thing, and we'll see how this goes You are free to do what you want Just know I will appreciate any care you throw my way I'll not let things be for granted anymore I will shoot my shot, even if I am more likely to miss You are precious to me You are one of the reasons I wake day to day I'm new to this, so I'm sorry if you find me lacking sometimes I only know how to care, I am unsure how to love

Notes

Thrice, I wrote a love letter. Once in elementary, once in highschool, and once in college.

All were met with rejection.

Many years since then, and now this is the fourth one.

I'm afraid to send this. Even when I'm a bit more mature now, a broken heart is still a broken heart.

I'm such a hopeless romantic. Still, writing is where I express myself the best.

Update: Life's good without drama, so I'm just going to shelf this until the right time.
