[70] - His
His messy handwriting
Contrasted with the white paper;
Clean and crisp.
He wrote:
"You told me to write truths
And stray away from delusional lies of the past
So these are the absolute truths I know.
Mt. Everest is the highest mountain the world;
The Nile is the world's longest river.
Anything divided by zero is undefined;
Blue and yellow make green.
There are 26 letters in the alphabet
And 7 continents on Earth.
We are 93 million miles away from the Sun,
And cherry kool-aid dyes your tongue red.
Dandelions and ladybugs grant wishes,
And there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
You love the rain (and always will)
And you look beautiful dancing in it.
Trees give us oxygen
But I swear I'm only breathing
When I'm with you.
Everyone dreams at least 4 to 6 times per night,
Yet you are the most fascinating being I have ever met
And I have gotten lost in you
And your galaxy of a mind.
Once you learn to ride a bike
You never forget,
Just like how you refuse to leave
My head.
I have fallen head-over-handlebars
In love with you."
