Real Love

Real love is the look in someone`s eyes
that is meant for you alone, 
a gentle kiss that says everything will be okay,
a hand held just the right way
at the right time.

Real love is a secret told to one heart 
and guarded by another, 
a belief that someone knows you 
as no one else can, the little day to day acts of thoughtfulness 
that go unmentioned but not unnoticed. 

Real love is a feeling that no matter where you are,
the deepest part of you
remains with the one you love,
a love that comes true
with a little time and a little luck.

Real love is a promise forever

and please Olivia if you can stay,
It`s just something I need to say
this is one thing I must do
Olivia Noll, may I make this promise only for you
