To the witty young man that I had the pleasure of calling mine for the past year and a half.... I love you.
I love you for your feet that remind me of my grandma's - always clean and soft.
I love you for your hands and their ability to make me squirm.
I love you for your eyes and lashes fit for a camel pageant.
I love you for your wit and ability to make a lot of things sound dirty and sad things happy.
I love you for the freckle on your knuckle, the one behind your ear, the one on your nose, the other near your belly button.
I love you for your thoughtfulness that comes in priceless packages.
I love you for your tenderness and attentiveness.
I love you for your big heart.
I love you for your ability to grow a mean beard.
I love you for your awareness and appreciation for all that's around you.
I love you for how neat and tidy you are.
I love you for how particular you are about your stuff and how things are done.
I love you for the friend you are to me and to the people in your life.
I love you for your ability to analyze and reflect on things in complete silence.
I love you for accepting me as I am, and joining in with some of my crazy.
I did not love your inability to express your self when I (thought I) needed it the most. - you did get better.
I did not love my impatience and inability to accept you as you are.
I did not love your ability to go long without keeping in touch.
I did not love my inability to understand that and not take it personally.
There's not much I did not love. For that I am thankful. I've called you magik, and now I'll call you hope.
With you my heart was full, my body loved, and my soul understood.
For that I am also thankful, and I am ready to move on.
