The Reality of True Love

Once I thought I was loved and in love, but now I realize that I never loved until the 
day I fell in love with you.

Everything before you was a fantasy- a figment of my mental intellect-'
For loving you gives me the strength to be more than average.

Loving you makes me want to excel- to soar as the eagle.

Loving you helps me to see beyond limitations, to know that with you, there is no 
barrier I can not break through

Loving you gives me an ecstasy that comes  with a "zest" for living life to the 
fullest: one that can not be compared  to any other facet of this world.

Loving you, I know I'm totally complete-a whole person.
