you know precious writing
poetry for me isn't hard to do
but sometimes i just want to say
what i want to say
so if you don't mind
i'd like to write you a letter.
My dearest Darryl,
Do you have any idea how much I love you?
All day, all night and in between, I long for you...
...long for your touch and your comfort.
Nightly, I whisper your name to the wind.
And then listen, intently, for an answer.
What man in this day and age, presents a woman with the stars?
Stating, "I love you, woman. Come as you are."
You fill my heart and soul with so much love and peace.
Precious, please know. I am not selfish.
The love I seek is the love I give.
Please let me love you with an open heart
the way I've always wanted to love a man.
No rough edges just plain soft.
A true woman for your real man.
Let my love to you be a source of comfort and peace.
Holding you in my thoughts.
All my love,
Kiwanda
