Love flows as easily as breath,
You'll take it in, and just as surely
You'll give it out.
It becomes harmony,
The opposite of pain.
For if pain rains on you,
You haven't loved yourself.
Touch becomes irresistible,
Beauty becomes all you see,
Hope becomes the dance of life,
And with love,
Dance becomes eternal.
The sensations enter freely,
Without a mind in sight.
Why, incredible sensations
Are all you're left to feel.
The eyes of the loved glow
A million fireflies,
The skin turns to silk,
The lips like sugar.
For this love does not end
In separation,
It magnifies.
Growing every single second
Even in distance.
Fearless I have become,
Temptation I have destroyed.
I possess a new power,
A newly discovered strength.
The strength to love thyself,
For only now I experience
What it truly means to love.
I dedicate this poem to the love of my life, Luke Sartor. He is one of the greatest joys in my life, and our love has given me the chance to find my true self.
