A Letter to Love
Dear Love,
Volume scares me so I express myself in silence. I don’t tell you I love you because it’s written in my eyes. I don’t tell you I’m in love with you because I serenade in it with a song. Sitting in random places as I draw your image in the sky and think about the future as we grow old together fighting each other with our canes calling it tough love. I gave us a title as I watched you play your games and called it “Love and Basketball”. It’s written in stone that we were made for each other because the stars allied, for our zodiacs were the same sign. Strangers become a part of our lives as we use musicians to communicate for when we are happy we sing “only you” by Jah Cure and when we are mad we sing “I hate how much I love you” by Rhianna. Never can stay mad for long at my love for I look back on all the words written in your eyes and all the tears that fell upon my cheek because of you or the sweat that collides on our body as we express our love with the sound of our heart beats. Always wishing to reverse your anger to happiness and reversing your hate to love but the power was never in my hands but in yours or let’s just say that in the game of love and basketball the ball was always in your court. I feel like I can never win for when I think I’m ahead of the game you argue your way to the top bringing me back to where I started, which was down. After all said and done we are now at the end of the game and as I watch you shoot the wining ball I gaze in the sky and I no longer see an image of you in the sky for now I see god. Looking into your eyes I no longer see words for I see only a friend.
