I sat, though my legs bounced and my body moved with the beat of the music that played in the background, and I thought. The gauntlet had been thrown and I was going to meet the challenge even if it killed me to sit still.

How do you prove to your significant other that you love them? Surely it is a question of the ages. So I thought on it hard enough to cause pain in the recesses of my mind until it hit me. To prove something of such significance, you would do so in a fashion that was yours alone, wouldn't you?

So in retrospect, to prove to my significant other that she is the one that could bring me to my knees with a single look, that she is the one that holds the key to my heart, that she is the only one I can see myself being with, I would have to do something in my style of expression.

I have to prove it in writing.

Now I just have to figure out how to say it without being overly cliché or corny.

"Love" is such an overused word; it doesn't carry half the impact it once did. People have even gone so far as to define it in the dictionary because they could not comprehend its meaning. I could say "I love you" till the world comes to an end and it would not even begin to describe how I truly feel about her. The "L" word is just that, a word. It is a feeling that has been compressed into a word so that the human mind may comprehend it.

But is what I feel something that can truly be described in words?

I can honestly say that it can't be, nor would I even try to describe it. To describe it would be trying to define it, compare it to something that barely holds a candle to it. I don't know how to describe how I feel, but I know that it is something special that I don't ever want to let go of.

She is something special that I don't ever want to let go of. I would be stupid, an idiot with a negative IQ, to let her go without at least a fight. If she were to leave on her own, I would not fight it, if she is happy, so too would I be. Her happiness is all that I care for…

I'm not entirely lost to this emotion that I feel; I know that things may one day change. But it is with all that I am that I hope that things will only change for the better between us.

I am slowly becoming unable to sit still any longer. I know that if I were to try to make this longer it is a circle that I will run in. Damned circles and your lack of edges. One day I shall run in a square. And soon, no longer shall I make sense.

If there was any thought that this girl I did not love, fools I would call you. Love is the only word in the world that can describe it, though it does not compare to how I truly feel. And a square I am running.

For my final thoughts, I shall leave you with this. For this is the proof I have compiled for this single truth.

Melissa, I love you with everything that I am.

I would do anything to ensure that your beautiful smile remains till our final days, even if we were not a couple, I would continue to work for that smile.

There is nothing I would not do for you.

Okay, those are more than one truth, but would any truly complain to have that told to them?

Forever, Love
