Erotas

Love is like mist.
It bends and it twists.
But never, it breaks.
nor ceases to exist.

But for some it untwists.
Then those couples raise their fists.
Losing the Love,
that had once existed.

I know not of that experience.
Nor would I desire to know.
In my heart, there's an essence
that has never ceased to glow.

If I said I'll continue loving you,
will you take that as a lie?

If I said I'll never leave you,
is that the same as a future good bye?

If I said I'll make you happy,
will you question my "Why"?

But, truly, can I not just say "I love you"
And hope you'll forever be mine?

I dare not fight my Destiny,
for losing it is easy.
But if it's a life without you.
I'll stage my own mutiny.
Fighting against that unfair future,
with this armor of Gluttony.

For my hunger for You never ceases,
it expands like the dark hole.
Stretching through ages
that only ends with one's Soul. (as in death, etc)

I want you in my Hopes,
I want you in my dreams.
I need you in my Life,
with your lovely sunbeams (smiles)

So don't be afraid,
and don't lose your love.
Don't dream of nightmares,
But millions of white doves. (if u know wat I mean... )

Never stop believing me,
and cease your silly fears.
For I'm like a tree.
And you a being.
I won't ever leave.
Unless you cut our Red String.

So, don't worry blindly
for...
My Devotion drinks from your trait.
My Love feeds on our date.
My Care sleeps within our fate.
Entrapped in this cycle,
which I'll gladly uptake.

For loving people is not easy.
my love curves and swerves.
That with others, there's just no WE
But when loving you,
it's as easy as ONE, TWO, THREE

*Erotas - the greek word for "Romantic Love"; "Although eros is initially felt for a person, with contemplation it becomes an appreciation of the beauty within that person, or even becomes appreciation of beauty itself."
