Your Love, True Love

If equal affection cannot be, let the more loving one be me - Anonymous/Unknown

Light on spring water, I'm swimming beneath; as I turn and look up there is light and as I get closer to the surface the light splits into a million pieces. That is what seeing you is like. You are my own salvation, you gave me more than a hand to hold... you gave me a home, you gave me the truest love I will ever know.

Your love can only be described as delicate, the purity of your adoring heart is overwhelming. Your heart is the loyalist of its kind, it is solid in truth, it never lies.

I can always be safe. Safe in the knowledge that our love is true. I never felt safe until there was you. You chased away the demons that haunted my tainted spirit. You made me finally catch my breath, in a life I felt lost in.

I never even meant to fall for you, but you caught me, I saw you and you saw me, those eyes, those viridescent eyes. You were lost too. Two lost things waiting endlessly to be found.

Choices, Dreams, Pursuits, they led us to be separated, but never by heart... its true what they say you know? Distance truly does make the heart grow fonder. I think we both know we took what we had found for granted, until the day we said goodbye.

Science and progress do not speak as loud as my beating heart, a beat that is synchronized with your loyal heart, it never falters, it keeps on beating, giving me the piece of mind that you are safe. If my heart beat no longer feels like yours, I will know. I will know that life as I know it, is broken.

Let us not think of that time, not now. We have time. Perhaps we have nothing but endless time. A Love like ours, one written from legends of vibrant green lights dancing through starry skies and an unforgettable duo protecting and making their own luck in this life. That is us. No one has ever loved the way I love you. You know how I know? Our love had no expectations, from the romantic gestures of Romeo and Juliet, the binding pages of Pride and Prejudice, the melodies of romantic symphonies, or the portrayal of love through cinematic production.

Our Love is one of a wild nature and an honest intent. We are free in our love, we expect no demonstrations of devotion, no materialistic items, just having the knowledge that our love is forever.

And we will love forever.
