Letter to Romeo

There is a face in my mind, a face filled with hope, a face filled with anticipation. Is that face yours? Did you lose it while you were looking for me? Here, let me help you put it back on. Must have been a long journey, I’ve been waiting for you for a very long time. I must warn you, I’m not whole anymore. I’ve had a few run-ins with tragedy while I was waiting for you. But it’s ok. I can still try to be everything you want me to be. I might not be the best at it, but I will give it all I’ve got. After all, we have to make this work, don’t we? There isn’t any hope for love apart from us. We are everything love ever meant. And it wouldn’t be fair if we didn’t give it our all. So, yeah, let me help you up now. I know you’re tired, but we’ve still got a long way to go. We can rest when we get there, when we’ve made done all that we can possibly, when the last candle had been lit and when the end of the road comes into view. But not right now, my love. Right now, we have to go and save love. So, come, take my hand now, and let’s be all that we were meant to be together. This is the moment we’ve been waiting for all our life.
