Love Fearlessly

like a momma bear protecting her cub in awkward fear we ration our love to protect our hearts fearing someday our spirits may part... even through the attempt to hold back— we love—no doubt like sweat through pores—it oozes out... clearer than 20/20 vision—it's plain to see our hearts are one—us—replaced you and me... with toiled emotions we sometimes contemplate the knowing at any moment like a thief in the night— snatch!—gone! what has brought our hearts heavenly delight no matter how hard we try—unavoidable will be the pain take comfort in knowing our passion—as hot as a hot summers day—only cooled by the love we rain... rain soaked passion to the soul like cool water to a flower near wilt for love is the solid foundation where passion is built... so release—let love take full flight— like a carefree bird as if there is no tomorrow—for one day— there won't be... when that day comes—one can reflect on all the wonder-fuls in their memory and send the other off with a smile that will reign an eternity... A reminder to enjoy the moment. Fully—It's all we really have...
