Neil Hilborn, I would like to buy you dinner. Love, Sarah

Dear Neil Hilborn,

I would like to buy you dinner.

Love,

Sarah

I was scrolling through my facebook newsfeed and came across a post titled "Man with OCD Blows Internet Away with Hauntingly Stirring Love Poem". Since I was in a sappy, lovey mood, my curiosity was piqued. I clicked the link and watched Neil Hilborn recite a powerful and sad love poem with intense passion. I sat there afterwards in silence. This was probably one of the most touching videos I have ever laid my eyes on.
