I gaze upwards at the Venetian sunrise, something equally beautiful catches my eye - you.
As the sunlight streams through the cafe window, I see you and decide to leave you a letter upon a table that is yet to be tidied.

Throughout my life, I have never been noticed for who I am, what I am — but you’re different, you take a grave interest in what most people perceive as nonsense, this.
You deserve somebody who’ll treat you right, respect you and love you for who you are - too many times have you been disrespected and told you’re not good enough.
Within this letter, spills my heart - I can only tell the truth, lying just isn’t in my nature, in my DNA.On a cold winter’s night, your cold, soft hands should be en-housed within safe, warm ones.
When the word ‘beauty’ is bounded around meaninglessly by people who do not know how to use it - the meaning is bound to ones outer self, this isn’t the case — beauty should not be bound such, it extends to your inner being and you are beautiful both inside and out.
Whilst you exude confidence and natural beauty - you have the heart of an angel, you are always looking out for others, even in times where you should look no further than the mirror.
I hold hope that one day, I could utter these words back to you as we walk these streets together — but for now, the knowledge of you taking this information and acting upon it as you wish, is enough.

As the sunlight streams through the cafe window, I see you open the letter that I placed upon a table that is yet to be tidied - as the envelope is opened, the letter is taken by the wind and is taken into the Venetian waters below.
I gaze downwards at the harsh, unforgiving waters — a tear adds to it, as I see my letter, my feelings, my dreams engulfed by the monstrous, beautiful, Venetian waters.
