When I close my eyes, I see a slideshow of all the things I forgot about you and I close them for days to just try to grasp everything I cherish so I can write them all down on a pink sticky note and keep it for the years to come, but when I open my eyes I realize a few things.
i. Some things are better felt than recorded.
ii. You’re complicated, I’ve known you for months and I still cannot grasp every little fragment of your face, your smile, your spirit.
iii. Your heart is like a wheel that can’t stop clicking and squeaking, palpitating underneath my hand. You expose it so openly, and I’m not going to pour oil into it to make it stop, for it is beautiful, otherworldly, and breathtaking. It deserves to be heard, it needs to be felt.
And now I close my eyes once more, and I remember the one thing I’ve smiled about for what felt like a millennium.
i. Your face.
ii. Your face is like a puzzle to my brain, dripping with mystery and light. It’s one of those memorable ‘this is what it should look like once you’re done’ illustrations that normally come with puzzles.
iii. The thing I remember most is your face, and that I feel it is the most beautiful thing since the music of Bach and Mozart.
I remember
Every detail
Every pore
Every speckle
Each time your breath catches in your throat, as if you have feelings you need to express, but you don’t know exactly how to say it—so instead you show it.
I. Love. Love.
I. Love. You.

this is brilliant work.... myself i would have no idea where to start to write something like this, but then again i have never been good a writing stuff like this...it's simply inspirational;... there is no other word for it... keep up the good work!
I can't write a proper critique for this! The reason? It's so intimate, and so deep. Yet, you relate it in a way that every person that's fallen hard for somebody can understand.
I love how you simply dive into the pool of feelings. It's not that easy to do, and I applaud the way you manage to phrase it so elegantly. It's simply marvelous. I adore this.
P.S. If you are writing this about a lover or a boyfriend, he needs to consider himself very, very lucky.
For my part, I really like that. You see xKelle_Bellex, your little story as well as your style of writing are very alike to mine. No desriptions, no pre-story - just feelings! The reader need to think, to use their imagination while reading it. Some can find it as a private letter to your lover, some as a chapter from your diary. But all in all, it's something different and really nice!
