Synonyms

For my Undiscovered Love,

Today, on a whim, I decided to search for synonyms of Unknown. Strange, I know, but I found several that I really enjoy. Case and point, undiscovered. Hidden, little-known, nameless, unexplored, unheard-of, unidentified, unnamed, unperceived, unrecognized, and last but not least, unrevealed. All of these describe exactly what you are to me at this moment. I am aware that somewhere out there, you are living your life, perhaps searching for me, perhaps you are perfectly content with your life the way it is. I certainly don't mind if you are just living your life without a clue that I am out in the world. It means that you are happy and satisfied right now, which I love the thought of. I want nothing more for you than to be simply happy and satisfied and one day I hope to be a part of that happiness. For now, I have to be content with the idea that you are that way at this moment, though I am not there with you.

On a day to day basis, there are so many things that would be made better if they could include you. I'd be more prone to be better about chores if you were there to sit and talk with me while I wash the dishes. Who knows, you might not even have to talk with me, I'd be happy to look over and see you laid out on the sofa, reading a book, watching tv, or possibly napping ever so peacefully. Picturing it puts a smile on my face and gives peace to my heart. Such simple dreams of mine should be easily attained. I don't need a big fancy house and you don't need to be absolutely perfect in the world's eyes. You'll be perfect for me... and... I know that I am imperfect... so, because of that you don't have to fit all of these crazy standards girls seem to have these days. But even though I don't have the absurd standards that run rampant in the female mind, I'm not going to settle for less than I deserve. And dearest, that is why I wait so patiently for you to come into my life. You are what I need, what I want, what I deserve. And you're out there... somewhere...

I don't know... maybe I've found you already. Maybe you're still out there somewhere. All I know is that whenever you make yourself known to me is when the world will make sense and when all will fall into place. Life won't get any easier, but it will certainly be more enjoyable.

Ardently,
Yours

Daily Grind

My dearest Unknown,

Another day, another dollar. Work crawls by and I begin to wonder what it is that you spend your days doing. Are you as bored as I am with a desk job? Do you wear yourself down to the bone with a grueling physical labor sort of job? Do you get to leave work issues there, or do you have to bring your work home with you?

I hope that no matter what you do, you are happy and fulfilled in doing so. Just know, my dearest that were I there with you, had we the great fortune to have met already that if you had a bad day at work I want to be there by your side to make it all better. Perhaps, have a hot meal started and on the stove when you get home. Perhaps, work the knots out of your shoulders and leave a trail of kisses along your neck.

Today has been uneventful for me. Hopefully your day has been as well.

Forever and always,

Yours

Lazy Sunday

To my unknown someone,

Today must be the most perfect day I have seen in quite some time. I'm at the edge of the water right now under my favorite tree in Maxey Park. So close to the edge in fact, that I get to watch the sky blue and pumpkin orange dragonflies dance with each other. Someday I hope to share such a dance with you.

It is on days like today that I know you are real and that somewhere out there you are existing just as I am. Though, I must confess lately I have been doubting that you are really out there, in our great wide world.

The breeze blows gently and even though it is still a warm day, a shiver runs down my spine. If you were here with me at this moment I'd bury my head in your chest, breath in your scent and snuggle as close to you as physics would allow.

My love, does the reflection of the sun on ripples of the water dancing on the lowermost branches of the weeping willow mesmerize you as it does me? Everything in nature seems to dance today. The dragonflies, the reflections of light, even the still green wisps of grass surrounding my toes. Would you dance with me too if you were here? We wouldn't need music, we'd have each other and our hearts would keep time for our feet.

So many young families are out enjoying the day. I look at them Love, and I can see our future so clearly.

Adoringly,

Yours
