*Note: I’m posting these two in the same post because they are meant to complement each other. Posting them separately would in effect place the second one before the first one, which is obviously out of order.
Dear Girl Who I’ve Fallen In Love With,
I think I’ve got a thing for you.
No simple thing,
but nothing with strings attached.
I love you unconditionally,
a love that I wish
would not be unrequited.
I want to love you more than anything,
except that I want you to love me too,
and I want you to let me love you.
That’s all I want, I don’t need anything else from you.
Someone answered my prayers
to find the perfect person to spend forever with
when you walked into my life,
and from the first moment I saw you,
I knew you were the perfection
I had been looking for all along.
I would never want you to change,
because you are the best how you are now.
I mean, I understand that time changes everyone,
but I could live with that,
as long as you don’t make yourself different.
I’ve fallen in love with your gentle kindness,
your mellow soul and your unpredictability.
When times seem difficult, you always seem to drag me
away from temptation, keep me level-headed,
keep me from doing something stupid, just by being you.
You make me feel like a better person,
more complacent, more mellow than I could ever be
by myself. I know I don’t owe you anything,
but I would love to give you my heart,
because your name is written all over it.
I couldn’t answer you if you asked me
why I love you, except that I could say
that everything about you is perfect,
even if you don’t think so yourself.
And if you can believe that, then I will gladly give you
everything I have to give.
With my whole heart,
Hopeless Romantic

Dear Hopeless Romantic,
I never thought this day would come.
I’ve dreamed about it since we first met,
but I never thought you would love me.
I’ve dreamed about you holding me in your arms,
softly caressing my skin with your gentle hands,
and kissing me softly, with every ounce of passion
you can possibly muster, and I’ve dreamed of
returning that kiss with the exact same passion.
Just like you don’t want me to change,
I would not accept any changes from you either,
except the change that comes with time.
You are the best when you are yourself,
when you don’t act like someone else,
and I love the real you that you hide too often from the world.
I love your sense of humor, and the way you make me laugh,
and I love how gentle you are with me,
how strongly you hold me with your heart.
I believe we’re made for each other,
destined to come together and fated never to part.
I will let you love me forever,
because my heart can’t live without you.
You have a certain something that
undeniably pulls me toward you,
and I never want to escape that force.
I love you more than anything in the world,
and I couldn’t ask for anything more than to
be in your arms forever.
I promise you that I will give you my entire heart,
and everything else that I have to give,
because I feel the same love,
the same fiery passion that you do.
With my whole heart,
Girl Who You’ve Fallen in Love With
