Letter To Her



Hey,

You don't know me but here's what I would say,
It's written in a letter from me to you for when we meet one day,
If romance was equal to sex, then get ready for a lot of foreplay
I'm talking long walks,
Longer dinners,
Extremely long nights with long days.
I love cooking breakfast.
Get ready for a few surprise bites,
My specialty is French toast,
I don't even mind making egg whites.
I'm a morning person, but if you aren't I'll let you sleep in.
Church isn't an issue because for you, I'll repent any sin.
Get ready for strolls by the water,
Movies in the park,
I'll even carve our initials into some old tree bark.
I'll be there for you when you're mad,
And if you need space, you don't have to lie,
I'll give my shoulder whenever you need to cry.
I even hope you pass away first,
I wouldn't want you to see me die.
I know that sounds crazy, but if I said otherwise
That would be a lie.
I've met a lot of girls that told me I'm the right guy,
But I've never met you,
My one true love,
The only apple of my eye.
In all reality to those girls,
I was just the left guy
I left them all because with you is where my heart lie.
Oh yeah, I have a cute laugh,
So it'll be hard for you to stay mad,
And when I'm mad, I stay mad.
But I’m working on that now so I won’t make you so sad.
Nothing would make me happier just to keep you glad.
Sometimes, I have a rude temper,
And there's something else my mom told me to warn you about,
But right now I don't remember.
Oh yeah, when I get excited I like to scream or shout.
But enough with my little imperfections,
That isn’t what this letter is about.
I love the fall,
The moon,
And even the night sky.
I always write when I can't express myself with just words,
I get out what I can, but trust me, I'm not a complicated guy.
I'll never let you forget how much I love you,
So sit back and let's watch how time flies.
I promise I'll give you my mind, body, and soul,
If you can live without the wealth,
I'd get a second job for our children,
So they could live in good health,
In a good neighborhood,
With a good school,
And good friends.
For Christmas, we'll get Santa Claus and reindeers,
And keep up the decorations until the Christmas season ends.
Most importantly,
I want you to sleep with a smile on your face,
Because at the end of the day, if anything went missing,
I'll always know that your heart stood in the right place.
This letter will be sent in the mail, and will travel through time and space,
And I apologize to your boyfriend now, if that's the case.
But I hope he knows if I knew who you were,
I'd say this to his face,
You're the one I'd love forever,
You're my queen,
You're my saving grace.
In life we make choices,
And my choices so far, resulted in me ending up in this place.
I'm sorry I'm late,
Loving you isn’t just a race.
I might get there last,
But in your heart I know I won first place.


Your one true love,

Everette Hamlette
The guy who will keep your heart safe.
