Love Letters

i wrote you love letters
at 2:00 am
when the world was
sound asleep,
when all i hear
was the beating of my heart
whispering your name.
i imagine you looking at me
with eyes so dreamy
like summer blue skies,
and on your lips
is a hint of
your signature lopsided smile
that turns into a hearty laughter
that melts my heart
and i could only sigh.
i guess you knew
how i miss you so
and you never left
my mind even
just a second or two.
absence truly makes the heart
grow fonder
and i miss you more than ever
each day
each moment
more than you will ever know
more than words can ever say-
and all this i wrote to you
in too many unsent love letters
i've written in silence
with all the love i could ever give
if only...
you were mine.
