theo

this poem is dedicated to the love of my life;

the one who helps me avoid legions of strife;

the one with whom i can confess;

my deepest fears and i can express;

the abstruse insecurities that he empowers me to address;

and he’s the one to allow me to decompress;

prior to Theo, i was an exhaustive mess;

he encourages me in every step of my success;

and he helps me to see the true decency that i possess;

and although we cause each other occasional stress;

i’ve never met someone i love this way, nonetheless;

Theo has assiduously embraced me;

with all of my ailments cycling viciously and rapidly;

Theo has genuinely allowed me to see;

all of my beauty—externally and internally;

and despite my lack of high self-esteem;

Theo has persuaded my aura to gleam;

brightly and in the direction of optimism;

he has truly decreased my cynicism;

he also reduced the consistency of my self-criticism;

Theo adores me from bottom to top;

i am never concerned that he will stop;

loving me dearly, nor will i be cropped;

out of his picture, nor will i be chopped;

out of his life, nor will i be dropped;

like an apple that fell from a tree;

Theo loves me way too profoundly to flee;

the love that we have is unconditional and he allows me to feel free;

our admiration and affection for each other is as deep as the sea;

and i believe that Theo would agree;

i’ve conjectured that our love is clear;

that Theo has altered my whole atmosphere;

and I will never meet someone remotely as sincere.
