I know - Repetition poem

 I know what love is

I know what it is like to ride on the roller coaster of love. 

I know how love can make your life a simple happy life.

I know what it takes to love someone truly.

I  know what it is to be loved without asking for it.

And that's why I shall always be in love with you...

Aspire ... Happy Valentine letter

I used to wish,

That someday, I would have a most selected friend,

Someone, I would look up to, turn to for answers,

A friend,

That I could share my laughs,

My sadness,

My gladness,

Share the same boundless regions of the infinite that I have chosen,

Because they genuinely wanted to share that endless space with me

 

I used to wish that someday,

I would find that Someone I could converse with any time I had something to say.

That Someone, whom I could share my most profound, private thoughts.

Thoughts that made up most of the intimate dreams I had about that Someone who would share my life with someday.

 

I used to wish,

That someday, I would meet that Someone who would be special to me,

That Someone, who I could hold anytime I wanted to when I needed to,

That Someone, who I could kiss hello to in the morning and kiss goodnight before I would go to sleep.

That Someone I just had to touch in the middle of the night,

And they were so entuned to me; their body would spoon into mine without even waking up.

 

I used to wish,

That someday, I would find how true love felt.

A love so strong, it would last longer than ever after.

A love my heart wore like a blanket,

That kept it warm on the coldest night,

Yet cool, on the hottest day.

A love I never wondered if it were true love because I could forever feel its radiant heat race through my veins on each soft rhythmic beat of my heart.

 

Today,

I wish,

I had not wasted all that time wishing,

Looking,

Praying for-

That Someone.

Because without realizing it,

I already knew that Someone, who was already carrying true love inside of them, that was meant just for me.

And that Someone,

were you and only you.

With all my love

PJ

Winter storm watch

 Eyes watch the sky that was colored white by thick falling snowflakes

High winds  swirled the snowflakes all over the land

Trees turned entirely white

Cars covered in white 

Streets covered with white as I watched from the comfort of my house

Then it stopped

Warm coat

Warm gloves

Snow boots and a hat with a built-in face cover were put on.

Garage door open to snow that was half as tall as I; that was a pretty sight in the middle of the night.

Snowblower pushed to the edge.

Engine starting rope is pulled. then pulled again and again

Switch to electric start

The engine still didn't let out hope of a fart.

I'm getting too old for this #^@*!
