'...I'd compare you to art.'

"If I had to compare you to one thing in this world, I'd compare you to art."

You are incomparable to any person I have ever met. You are strong; bold like the vibrant colours delicately spread across a blank page. You are wise, yet humorous. Your roots are so grounded yet you stretch out so far that you have no bounds. You are beautiful, indescribable, and immaculate. The way you make me feel when I look at you is what I truly believe love is; an overwhelming, burning radiance of adoration.

Art can only be appreciated by those willing to understand it, and by God, believe me when I say I would study every inch of you and give you all of me in order to understand you: To know you. To be yours.

The creator of a masterpiece dedicates themselves wholeheartedly to their work, and you are so inspiring and refreshing from how you view the world and how much you've grown as a man; how you've created yourself.

I'm not good at describing how I view you, simply because I can't find the words to. There's not yet a word that describes the intense feeling of cherishing care I have for you. I suppose you could call it love—however, there's so much more to how I feel about you than simple adoration. It's strength and it's patience. It's hardship and courage. Loving you has been the scariest thing I have ever done, and for that not only am I proud, but it's how I know without a doubt how irreversibly, unconditionally in love with you I truly am.

My morals have been tested and questioned during our relationship, and I have been forced to either stick by what I believe in and give up everything that I want, or take a risk and let my heart be vulnerable at your disposal, whenever you should wish to dispose of it. I have been faced with heartache and desperation, like struggling to breathe when there is air all around me. I have been exhausted and tired, but worst of all, I have been unloved and alone, even in your company.

My love for you is unrequited. It's a blissful torture having this relationship with you. Loving someone is selfless, yet selfish. The feeling I get from being with you, from looking at you and touching you is far too great to give up. That is why I am selfish, although everything I have ever done for you is out of pure love.

I am in awe of all the time we have spent together. I cherish every moment, and I will for the rest of my days on this earth, for you are the most perfect piece of art, and I love you.

"I hope years go by and I look back at this with a small smile on my face. I hope we make it. I hope all my lucky stars come together to make this dream a reality. I will always love you, for as long as I live on this earth. It has been this powerful and irreversible since the moment I laid eyes on you all those years ago. So, if there is a God out there, my one true wish would be... actually, it would be for him to be happy."
