Love Letter, Part One



The beginning of a letter in my head I’ve heard from somewhere else, I don’t remember where, yet it bears your face: “Do you know how much in love with you I am? I have fallen in love with you without taking a single step.” I carry a mounting elation that borders on a certain sadness, close to tears as it seems: to have seen your face yesterday while I was walking home was enough of heaven—and enough of dangerously longing dreams that tell me I must touch your face, soon, or crumble in my silence. What is it of you that captures? Your eyes, perhaps, but they tell me nothing, except that you do not really see me yet, but I see you, and I can only dream of running my fingers through your hair, and touch your face, gently, the way the moon touches the night waves.
