a letter to you

dear sweet beautiful one,

do you know...
how deeply
my love river
flows?

dear tender hearted one,

do you know...
how carefully
i hold your
soul in mine?
do you know...
i will never
treat you with
anything less than
respect?
and honor?

dear young free-spirited one,

do you know...
that if you ever need
to run,
i will set you free
and,
do you know...
that if you need someone
to run
beside you,
i will?
do you know...
that wherever you run,
home-base will always
be in my
heart?

dear passionate one,

do you know...
that wherever your taste
will take you
that i
will always be
there?
do you know...
that your love for me
will always be
matched by that
of my own
for you?

dear questioning one,

do you know...
that i may not
have all
the right answers?

and no matter...
what the
question,

no matter...
how it may
pain me to hear,

no matter...
how it sounds,

my answer, sweet angel,
is always...

i love you.
