ONE LOVE
Love is like a bunch of grapes,
Held together by a thin vine,
A vine built on respect,
A vine built on trust,
A vine built on a mutual bond,
A vine that can be easily broken.
Love is like an addiction,
Something that is deeply craved,
Something that is sought after for a long time,
Something that can be unhealthy and ruin you,
Something that can be healthy and make you into a new person.
So because you love me,
Now I feel anew,
Because you love me ,
I feel like I am fresh from my mother’s womb.
Because you love me,
My heart is full of sparks,
Because you love me,
My heart feels like a 4th of July parade.
Because you love me,
I am no longer filled with hate,
Because you love me
I am no longer filled with pointless rage.
Because you love me,
I am happier and glowing,
Because you love me ,
I feel like I am consumed with the rays of the sun.
Because you love me ,
I want to do the best,
Because you love me,
I now see the meaning of love.
Because you love me,
I feel eternal happiness,
Because you love me ,
I am no longer lost but found.
I now know the meaning of real relationships,
Having had a hurtful past full of mostly downs and never ups,
I had given up on love and settled with the thought that I could never find someone to love me for who I am,
But you changed that and I cannot compare this feeling to anything else.
So because I love you,
I will do what it takes,
To keep you safe and to keep you warm,
To keep you close and to keep you by my side.
Because I love you ,
I will reassure you of my constant love,
Because I love you,
I will support you in all your endeavors.
Because I love you,
I cherish all the happy moments we have had and are yet to have.
Because I love you ,
I want to spend eternity with you.
I love you for loving me despite my constant flaws.
