Enlightenment

So enlighten me what is true love? 
It's unbreakable,but its more than that 
it's without boundaries and without conditions 
it's without requirements,it's without doubts 
and its never ending, it runs deep and constant 
deep within you like a river with no end 
it reminds you with every look and touch 
with every letter of every syllable of every word 
with every brick of the obsticals it over came 
it turns into the air you breathe 
it intoxicates you,infects your very being 
everything you do and how you do it changes 
you think of this person and your body tingles 
with antisipation, with need 
and when you think of it ending you get a little colder 
and you feel dead inside when you realize 
its really over and it wasn't what you thought it was 
but it doesn't matter if you know what true love is 
what matters is that you have it and hold on tight 
so, don't leave me... don't let this go
