Hm... I am really just posting this is dedication to my fiancé. I love her so and I write poems for her all the time. I thought I would post a couple of those poems in a journal on here. I hope they are liked.

How to Write a Love Letter

Huh, how to start a love letter,
This I’ve often tried,
But you know that if I failed it,
I might as well have died.

I’d probably have to start,
With how I love you so,
How you make me happy,
How I love you from head to toe.

I’d have to mention your perfect smile,
And your voice of an angel choir,
Your flowing hair of silken gold,
And your eyes of bright sapphire.

I’d spend a while on how you love me,
And a few tears would come to my eyes,
As I thought of your many promises,
The one that you’d be beside me when I died.

Going into the second paragraph,
I’d switch to the many joys,
That having you be my entire life,
So wonderfully employs.

Speaking of my happiness,
I’d transition into fears,
Which you resolve and easily solve,
Ridding me of all my tears.

Then after a million other compliments,
That I haven’t the time to write,
I’d switch into the ending,
Which would much more reflect light.

I’d talk about our love,
And try to sum it up,
Though I know that in a few lines,
All I can do is close it up.

Let’s see how I would say this,
How to end this poem and letter,
Something that would make your mind,
Not unlike a tether.

How about I say a bit,
About falling in love with you,
How I know that even when I die,
You will still hold true.

Let me finish out with a sentence,
That we all know to be true,
Let’s sum it all up in three little words,
I. Love. You.





Save me I lie awake in an undying storm,
My heart longs to hear your voice,
To be happy again,
For my happiness to take a form.

I love hearing you my dearest,
For I know it calms me down,
I lie alone in my bedroom,
In all my fears I drown.

You have not called me as of yet,
And I’ve gone into my bed,
I know my phone, it will not ring,
And still I watch it yet.

I want your arms around me,
To tell me it’d be okay,
To hold me safe from all on earth,
To tell me it is just the way.

I can hear the clamoring of my dogs,
As they bark about the halls,
The thunder echoes as they sound,
Shaking the very walls.

I am huddled under my blanket,
Sad as it may seem,
Holding tight to my hopes,
Hoping to fall into dream.

I continue to stare at the unmoving phone,
Hoping to God that you’re safe,
I think about the things that could’ve gone wrong,
And hoping again for you’re safe.

Another crack comes across the sky,
The clock outside my door strikes four,
I urge my hand to pick up the phone,
But my text will be unanswered by my adored.

I know there is no point,
To my silly fears,
But still I can’t help but feel,
A few of the unshed tears.

I finally find my happy place,
One with you as my bride,
And I seem at once to completely forget,
Things that come with bad tides.

I think of all your happy smiles,
That I amazingly spur,
And the little giggles you produce,
When petting an animal’s fur.

I imagine our amazing honeymoon,
And the thought of you saying ‘I do’,
Now I remember most of all,
That all I need is you.

I lie down wary in my bed,
Ignoring the coming storm,
And I dream of all our happy days,
Which we will spend loving and warm.
