Your Love

Your Love

Who am I without love?

I am insecure, I am lonely.
I am restless, I am senseless.
I have no purpose, I am a body.
I am irresponsible, I am impulsive. 
I don’t value much, not even myself. 

Who am I with love?

Love unlocks me from an unbearable cocoon tranforming me to an object.
Love replaces a trained smile to an involuntary overflowing beam of
radiance from my soul.
Your love allows me to treasure time, every precious second.
Your love teaches me to value you, all of you.
Your shyness, your indecisiveness,  your immovable  strength,  your fragility. 

Your love teachers me to love.
How to love you. The ever changing you.
You are a mountain difficult to climb.
Yet your streams nourish me, your trees shade me. 

You are locked in the chambers of my heart.
I will protect you and comfort you.
I will  climb, I will forever climb.
