Love


Love
I thought I felt it once
my mind thought about you
my heart slowed down when i said your name
my feelings remained balance
you were my light for the moment
my paper to express how i felt
I trusted you
I believed in you
I thought you were it
my motives were unintentional
but as i gazed in your eyes i felt safe
my heart widened
my eyes opened
my soul deepened
my body yearned
I smiled, I laughed, I cried
your joy brought me life
your smile kept me happy
immaculate you were
but that was what I concurred
instead i betrayed myself
logic was dismayed
truth was hidden
wrong became right
and as I lived in this fantasy
I knew soon that I would have to awaken
This is LOVE
