Reasons of the Heart


Why do I love?

Considered merely a question

An involuntary action as breathing is to a smile from your relaxation

An involuntary action as one continues to live as my eyes close from your kiss I suppose

Why do I love?

A question to be considered

As life goes on

A statement reiterated

Why do I love?

Why do I love when one has spoken love is blind?

Why do I love?

Love due to the comatose reaction from your kiss's connection to my soul

To be awake is conscious viewing in the eyes

Why do I love?

Love remaining awake in my comatose state 

From a kiss as I lay living separate of a wake
