I’ve Learned to Love
Location
Because of you I’ve learned that love is possible.
The endearing moments that brighten my day
the smile I receive as I wave goodbye
the simplistic kiss as I say good night.
Love that brings me warmth as I’m trapped in the darkness
until a shadow of lights arrives to set me free.
Love that admires my failures as a beautiful piece of art
as every blink is an eternity.
Because I love, I must recognize that I may be blind
as a feather falls silently on the floor
my love for you will flourish.
But I may not have seen what was truly there.
The breath of air, the gasp for life
you bring me closer to a love I have not encountered before.
A love so pure and precious
a love I wouldn’t have known before.
