Why We Fell In Love

As I shed myself for you 
                     piece by piece 
May I never lose sight 
            of who I am 
                           and 
            what I am all about....

As I join my heart 
                  to yours 
May I be your loving addition 
             and not your only 
      what I need most is me....

As love takes us to 
                      the Everest mountain 
May I never have to jump 
         without you 
we are in this together....

As we rise above,   
                   whether we shine together 
or stay in the shadows alone ... 
May we never lose sight 
             of how and why, we fell in love  !

Yes indeed true love but not at the expense of our own soul.

Beautiful! Deep and poignant. Great poetry! Romantic poetry is not about wisdom, truth nor lies -- it is about being fiery alive! Every word breathing, exploding with passion. You get a FAV!

True love always feels like breathing under water, lol, thanks for the comment Joe

Ah but where love is, there is no thought, only the effervescence of bliss … yet I do agree with your sentiments of retaining individuality, entwined with a spirit of sacrifice and mutual respect.
