To the lover I have yet to find. Hi, I’m Abena but I like it when you call me babe. You are the most beautiful person I have ever met. Every time I see you I find something new to love. Your smile and your kind eyes fill me up with butterflies and your touch feels so warm it makes my skin melt. You make me feel certain happiness and comfort I have not felt before and the thought of not having you in my life makes my heart ache.
I am an over-thinker and a hopeless romantic. I like to listen to music and record myself when I dance. I do not eat seafood and my Starbucks order is a grande chai latte with soy milk and a blueberry muffin. I am not a morning person but if I have to wake up just to see you next to me then sign me up because I know each day is a new adventure when I am with you.
To the lover I have yet to find. I am convinced that I love you wholeheartedly. You remind me of the first time I fell in love and the last time I ever will. I find it hard to let people into my life but everything seems so easy with you and I adore you for that.
Our journey to exploring our love for each other is not going to be easy. I lack the ease at which I can be completely vulnerable with you. I fall into deep depression and my anxiety wakes me up at night but my friends would admit that I am the life of every party. I do not understand this contradiction but I hope you will be there for me at all times.
To the lover I have yet to find. I want you to make the decision to love me like you make the decision to drink water each day. I want you to be patient with me because I do not have love all figured out. Past experiences have conditioned me to fear the unknown, plan for the worst and protect my heart. I always make the mistake of picturing the end before it blooms into something beautiful but I will not be scared of history repeating itself with you because I have to come to understand love as an experience with multiple people and I promise to cherish this experience with you.
To the lover I have yet to find. I do not know what you look like but I see perfect in you. I know you will show me what it means to feel again.
This is a letter to the lover I have yet to find.
Te quiero mucho.
