As The Evening Comes To A Close

I love you. I end every good night, every conversation, to you with those words. I want to make sure those words of fondness and caring are the last words I say to you before we part ways. I hope to always send you out into the world or off to dreams with love. I may wake up to find you gone one day, and I never want you to wonder. I love you, I miss you when we are apart, I think you are so incredibly special, I hope and wish nothing but good for you, I believe in you with all of my heart. If it is the last thing I say I'll be glad. Never too much, never too soon or too often is love. I believe everything, no matter how small should end on love.

A Little Less Than Normal

It is ok if you have had enough for today, let the minute hand wipe the slate clean, soon it will be tomorrow. You can make a new normal, it doesn't have to be this. Just hold my hand, close your eyes, and count to three. Did that change anything? No? I didn't expect it would, it's just sort of nice not to have to feel this way all alone.

Save Our Ship

I regret to inform you, the person you are looking for is dead. Every effort was made to sustain them, but in the end it just wasn't enough. I will be filling in until a suitable replacement can be found. I understand you are confused, and for a while it will be difficult to adjust. Please calm down, I can't undo this, I don't possess the knowledge or the power. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, please accept my most sincere apologies for your loss.

If Left Unsaid

I don't know when or how it happened; you and I speak a different language now. I feel like my words are all broken, I can't get any of them to work right or mean what they are supposed to. I find no cellar door, I find no poetry, I find no meaning. I just don't know how to talk to you anymore.

A Proposal

Dear Future Husband,
              I promise to love you with one hundred percent of my heart. I promise to always try and make you happy. I promise to love you just as you are and not try to make you anything else. I promise to love every unique part of you, and to cultivate your youness whenever I can. I promise to be your best friend and to share my heart with you. I promise I won't need the world or the sun or the moon to be brought down and given to me as a gift, I won't need a lot of money, I won't need a fancy car, I will only need your love and happiness to foster mine. I promise to keep looking for you until I find you. I promise not to lose hope that you are out there somewhere and I will find you some day. I promise I'm out here, waiting to find you too.

Love,
      Your Future Wife. 

Abandonment Issues

There was a time when I was real, I know there was. At least, I think there was.

Imaginary Worlds

There are giant ball pits and you have to take a slide to get everywhere. No one cares what you look like or what you wear only that you are yourself. It rains mint chip ice cream every Wednesday and you only have to go to work if you like your job. The libraries always have the books you want to read and there is always a giant fluffy chair available. Saturdays are adventure days and everyone gets on a giant pirate ship to sail for distant shores and buried treasure. You love me here and we make each other immeasurably happy.

I like the idea we got to be happy together somewhere, at least.
