Don'T Despair I Love You

Allow me to recover with no pressure
Saying “I love you” when I’m down
is not an accurate measure
Of my love for you
And our love is true

I love you with all my heart
And my mind and soul
Your love for me makes me more than whole
And when you’re at a distance
A piece of my extended self goes missing
For your bold existence
Drives me with ambition

It’s my fragile heart that you stole
And when you are gone,
My love
I am no longer an extended whole...
