Written Love

Saw her in the street today,
short and sweet glance of her beauty,
shes so elegant, oh so breath taking,
something that im lacking.

Met her at a coffee house once or twice,
watched her hand gestures as she sipped her latte,
something so beautiful right infront of my eyes,
I take one more glance as we say our goodbyes.

I watch the ink caress the paper as I write this letter,
this letter which is addressed to her,
something I will keep in my back pocket,
nessled in a safe place
I know this love is not a race.

I walk the stony grounds,
to were this love was first found,
something so indescribable, unreliable,
even though I know better,
I still keep this letter.

I feel discouraged and frightened,
at the thought of giving you my written love,
even so any feeling wont let me waver,
this love will be forever,
forever in the inky words on this paper,
forever the love that lives in my back pocket.
