In high school, I wrote these two lines to you. I never finished the poem, or song, or whatever it was meant to be. I hope to achieve that tonight. (6/12/25)
“Edie my sweetie,
A Lover like no other”
The two truest sentences I ever have hoped to utter during my blissful days of innocence and wonder.
Without knowing the true grasp of your wondrous embrace I fantasized day and night of your smile and your face.
Though time did test me, mold me, and fray, I have never in my life lost sight of your grace.
Through thick, through thin, and all manners of hell I always slipped through and managed to prevail.
I knew of a place where you are with me, though I had no idea of how that could be.
I broke, I crumbled, I failed again and again, no promise ever came through in the end.
Countless days had then passed, but I could still see; the glint of the future where you are with me.
In the gentle stream of time, I carved a wake. I thrashed and fought decay, all for your sake.
The light, it shines, through day and through night. Now that I can hold you close, everything is right.
Edie, I am honored to call you my sweetie
My lover, you’re unlike any other
