Loving You

A fear of love, a guarded, cautious heart, But with you, darling, it tears itself apart. A willingness to fall, a leap of faith I take, For in your eyes, a love so sweet I wake.

"Trying" feels a lie, a hollow, empty word, For in your presence, my whole being's stirred. A love so fierce, it burns with endless might, To shower you with passion, a dazzling, brilliant light.

Yet selfhood's flame, I yearn to hold it bright, A love that lifts, not suffocates in night. Forever's dream, a whisper in the breeze, But even fleeting moments, a cherished memory to appease.

Love's tangled web, a constant, puzzling game, Too much, too little, forever playing the blame. My heart cries out, a truth I can't deny, To hide this love, a fire that burns inside.

Desperation's mask, a fear I cast aside, For in your gaze, a truth I can't hide. A perfect dream, a paradox we share, A love that heals, a love beyond compare.

All of me, a gift I long to give, But patient understanding, how does a lover live? Annoying, yes, a truth I can't deny, But space and freedom, a love that won't lie.

Uncharted territory, this love we explore, Teach me your language, what your heart implores. Forever's an illusion, a whisper in the air, But love's sweet journey, a treasure we can share.

So let us dance, beneath the moon's soft glow, Learning to love, as the feelings ebb and flow. For in your eyes, a love I see so true, And with each beat, my heart surrenders to you.
