unsent letter

I’m touched and moved
by how your eyes
suddenly became beautiful
for me

They were so warm
so delicate
so caring
so soft
That look embraced me
That captivating smile
so wide and tame...
was simply speaking volumes

I liked the sound of your voice
when addressing me
that subtle melody of kindness
I'm forever grateful

This letter can't be sent
yet I would have you know

I will always carry you inside my heart
You’ll be one of those people I treasure
And when I die
I’ll tell God you’re good
