Has a man ever seen so attractive a person?
Have the gods ever beheld such beauty?
The beauty of you cannot be expressed by the clever grouping of letters.
You are the sun.
There is no one that stands your equal.
You shake the heavens!
I do not choose to love you. It claims me as it will.
The strength of such a tether not easily severed. Perhaps never to be so.
To see you is a thing I have craved more than air and breath.
The sun will no longer move across the sky without you.
The ivory moon will plummet into frothing sea without you.
I have never seen me so unhinged.
Heart's desire turns reason a fool.
The memory of your slightest facial expression, it fills the very air, choking each breath with the sting of loss, and binding my heart in chains.
There is no place that memory would not follow.
Ryoko Hirosue,
I love you, always have, always will.
In this life, or the next.
