I just want you to know
you have the most beautiful soul
that I have ever known.
A gentle compassion
radiates from your eyes
and transpires from the pores of your skin.
Such refreshing honesty
given so unselfishly
that my heart melts itself from within.
It calms me to see you,
to be in your presence,
and I just wanted to let you know.
I wish you didn’t have to go.
