Reality of Love

Love is nothing but an emotion of soul,
Love when selfless, reward is not the goal.

It wasn't easy to fall in love without trust,
With uneasy heart slowly I tried to adjust.

Trust came first long before I loved you,
And with passing time my love slowly grew.

Love brought hope, hope of togetherness,
It united our hearts with feeling of oneness.

Life had challenges nothing came straight,
Your love made me strong to fight the fate.

I found in you, real love that I longed for,
In my dark life you came like a bright star.

Life is beautiful with your precious love,
Blessed I feel with no regrets in life now.

Love is spring sunshine with gentle breeze,
And without your love my life would cease.

Years gone by, in reality our love is still new,
As again and again, I fall in love with you.
