LOVE

To my beautiful baby,

I just wanted to reduce a few of my thoughts and feelings to writing:

When I first lay eyes on you at Melrose Arch my heart skipped a beat and my breath was momentarily taken away. I thought to myself that if I don’t approach you and at least get your name (to put a name to the girl of my dreams of course) I will kick myself and have endless regrets. So, armed with this and not wanting to beat myself up forever I took those brave steps toward you, focusing not to trip. Up close you were even more beautiful and I had to really concentrate to avoid mumbling. I can’t remember exactly what I said-this relapse caused by your amazing smile. Needless to say though that after we parted ways that evening and after getting your number, there was a jingle in my step and a huge smile on my face-this also till today.

Our first kiss was amazing- thought to myself that your lips are perfect.

Now to my feelings for you; I have come to care for you so much and feel that we really have developed a wonderful relationship already, albeit in a short period of time. There are no rules about when to love someone suffice it to say though that you just know. I can say with all my heart that I LOVE YOU and only hope that you give this the fair opportunity that it deserves-and that is to be something so amazing (all the foundations are there).

So, to conclude (but not to end), I will continue to love you and my love for you will only continue to grow. You are an amazing person that I see as my perfect partner. When your hand touches mine, or when your lips meet with mine, I am in absolute heaven and my world is filled with happiness. When you gaze at me I forget about all these earthly problems.

You make me happy and all I want to do is reciprocate that and make you even happier.

I love you so much.

Darryl
