To my one and only,
Why must you use the cords of my soul to play such a smooth melody? It’s truly astonishing how I could have fallen for you. Could it have been all those late night calls? Or maybe something deeper. How I could tell you what I couldn’t tell others. Words and thoughts I never thought I would use. Your laughter worth billions, making me want to make you happy and smile many more times. Smiling at my stupid jokes, not caring about what others may say about me, and listening to anything I have to say and somehow remembering every detail.
Have I been put under a spell? My heart aches every time you must leave. I want to spend every year, month, week, day, hour, and infinitely more time than that with you. Speaking of time, you manage to make a hang out of hours feel like a second. The same second which I won’t allow out of my grasp. If only that was truly possible. Just remember, whenever you need someone to speak to, I will always be free for you. I may not be the best responder, but I will sit and listen to whatever’s lingering in your mind.

My life before you was void. Seeing nothing but infinite darkness ahead. Wandering around endlessly waiting for time to take its course. That was until we got paired up for a group project. Seeing you for the first time was like feeling the warmth of a sunset after a long day. The burning pain my heart endures seeing you, knowing that I would have to wait to be with you. Every glance, every time you say hello to me in the hallways, and every word we exchange feels as if cupid has had me tied to you since the start. I feel as if my life has no value without you. Like a puzzle piece that has no means until it has been connected by another piece. My heart has been yearning, yearning for us to be more than just friends.
I won’t allow myself to coward away behind my brain any longer, instead I will embrace my heart. So many songs of different feelings play in my heart during every conversation we have. Agony that I can’t be with you, but still madly in love with you. How I wish to be your one and only. I wonder if you notice how I melt whenever we talk. How I stutter on easy words during simple talk, how I say stupid things whenever I’m around you, how I can’t keep my eyes off of you, and so much more. I hope that you have noticed. If you had noticed then that means you’re paying as much attention to me as I am to you. I truly wish we could have more time. But at some point, the cupid's rope will wear down and we must go our separate path. Our time together was short but as valuable as diamonds. Let us wait for the perfect time, without having to worry about what others may feel of us. So the only thing we can focus on is each other. The time that is just right for us both.
