Love

How do you learn how to love is it something you do
Or is it something you fall into
Is it a feeling you express
Or something you can't stress
Was it when I looked into your eyes
Or was it what I saw deep down inside
Was it the way you talked
Or maybe how you walk
Was it the depths of your soul
That made me feel as if I was a fool
Or was it the imagination of our destination
With the level of my infatuation
Whatever it was as my heart beat faster
My breath grew slower
But somehow I knew
Without being taught I was in love with you
The gleam in your eyes
The beauty inside and outside
But what truly is love between you and another
Are you really birds of a feather
Or as it's said opposites attract
Either way these feelings if never retract
Even if this is an unrequited fervor
As long as I have a moment near her
To watch the words fall out her lips
To have her grip
My hand and in turn I realize
Maybe the truth is hidden behind my lies
Is she mine
Or have I been blind
Seeing all I wished to be
But never realizing it was the perfection I hoped dreamily
As the sunsets leaving the sky dark
With a stark
Contrast to the morning sunrise
I will find the truth behind the lies
Hopefully the love is what it's meant to be
And glorious in reality
