my love wishes for you are not few or facile or facetious for despite my flaws and the fact that i am crawling with flies you do not realize the depth, the fierceness, of my feelings for you for there have been so many nights you have slept and i have listened to your breaths thanking the god you think i have forgotten for the miracle of you for the love you have given so freely so faithfully for your sweet face tinged with moonlight serene and beautiful and noble and mine to cherish until the day i die i have failed you again i will always fail you and yet i want you to know that my love wishes for you are not few or facile or facetious i wish for you a woman so wondrous and lovely she will make the ache of loving and losing me fade away like i was three and a half years of nothing a bad dream shaken off upon waking i wish for you a fully awake woman who does not sleepwalk or talk nonsense a woman beyond innocence yet still pure and puerile in some way a woman you can play with giggle with the meg ryan character you love in "you've got mail" perky and smart and principled who will never wound you with words or bored eyes i wish for you paradise in a warm soft body she will do more for you than spread lotion on your hands and she will leave you notes and surprises not a mess of makeup and wish lists and credit card receipts you will find what i should have given you you will find all the beauty and wonder that you deserve you will not die alone you will not die ashamed my love wishes for you are not few. |
