simply


Love is patient love is kind

That is often how it is defined

But that is not the case it is more

And somtimes it is less

It can be an open door

Or a simple caress

It’s putting someone else first

It is never being coerced

Its knowing when to be there

And knowing when to stand back

It is being part of a pair

Sometimes love lacks

But that is okay no one is perfect

But as long as there is respect

You can build a safe place

A place where you give more than you take

Love is not a race

It is something you can’t fake

It is something you fall into

It is something you can’t undo
It is where both people can be safe

Where no one holds more power

Where neither is a slave

It helps people bloom like a flower

It is where you become who you truly are

It never leaves a scar

It helps you open up something new

Simply becuase I love you
