I love you every
day but today I will put
it in a haiku

Every word you allow escape your lips that you've dedicated to me resonate within
Every glance you take at me burns a new memory of you into my mind
Every delicate touch you give me sends waves of electricity to all the corners of my body

Your love, your love is like no other;
silky, smooth, no bumps nor resistance
I've not only learned to love you yet, the kind of love you give
I have been taught lessons in the form of rituals throughout my whole life but you've taken that and started to teach me discrete ways of thinking and I like it

I like you, I like your eyes, your smell, and your touch.
I like the way you think and the way you talk
The way you effortlessly string your words together and connect your thoughts to those who surround you

Every second we are together I never fail to stop studying you
what is it about you that I love most?
is it your smile or your eyes
is it your laugh or your voice
is it your generosity or empathy
is it your mind or your body
I have come to understand that I will never stop studying you because you are different and ignite new revelations in my mind  
And I think that is why I am in love

There is a ring on my left hand;
it is just as much a knife to my back
as a knife in my pocket as I walk down a dark alley.
It is the light at the end of a tunnel that is already lit
and the light by which we guide ourselves home by in the night.
It is the bullet that misses its innocent target
and the bullet that explodes in the hands of a person defending their home.
This ring, that glints in the night, and shields me...holds the answer and the questions.

The clouds are so beautiful in the sky
I wonder if that’s like you and I
Do I complete you, like the clouds with the sun so bright?
Because you make me shine like the moon in the night

Dear Diary;
Today is for the chocolate lovers
and the hopeless romantics.
This year,
I am not one of them.

If you kissed
me to infinity,
I would still be
craving more because
enough does not exist
when it comes
to you.
