Love Letter

To You,

I’m crazy for you…Wholeheartedly, smitten…on the brink of dangerously, untimely affection. They say that eyes are the window to the soul, and that love is a battlefield. So in haste, I put on the shutters for fear love’s whirlwind might hit me suddenly…and now that it has, I have found my house in ruins and my eyes telling a story that betrays me…

But the fact is…I can’t get enough of you.

You are everything my mind dreamed of, yet your complexities are beyond fathoming…and I’m beguiled… hopelessly lost in eyes that betray only laughter and depth’s unknown. Yet..in the depths lie the greatest of treasures, and I will patiently seek them out. For you have bewitched me, body and soul…

But love’s whirlwind wreaks havoc on my heart that is encompassed in insecurities, unrequited love, and memories of heartache that don’t age over time…and I ask myself, “Is it safe to dream again…to feel again…to defy logic…and to risk?” As I ponder, the winds calm, and I temporarily forget the joy that I feel as you walk into a room…but only temporarily.

Because love defies logic, and takes risk…and I’m falling in love with you.

Love,
Naomi
