tribute to someone i don't know
originally written 04.15.03

dear faceless friend, sexy shadow,
i'll write you letters with words
to melt the heart
i've yet to touch.
tributes to the things
you will have done for me.
the joy we'll share,
the nights we'll spend,
the love we'll make.
the kisses i'll place on
the lips i've never seen.
the eyes that have not yet
fixed their gaze on me.
the voice that will stream
through a phone on a call to be made.
the place we will meet
for the first time.

i don't know you,
but i know you so well.
you don't know me,
but you know me so well.

i'm here and you're wherever.
someday you'll get my letters.
