“To my unsuspecting love,
When I look into your eyes, I lose all sense of time and place. Reason robbed, clear thought erased, I am lost in the paradise I find within your gaze.
I long to touch your blushing cheek, to whisper in your ear how I adore you, how I have lost my heart to you, how I cannot bear the thought of living without you.
To be so near you without touching you is agony. Your blindness to my feelings is a daily torment, and I feel driven to the edge of madness by my love for you.
Where your compassion when I need it the most? Open your eyes, love, and see what is right before you; that I am not merely a friend, but a man deeply, desperately, in love with you.
Longing for you.”
