I love with passion

With power

With heart.

I love in a hurricane of words

I love in embraces so tight they ache.

I scream out my love till this throat of mine goes aflame.

I love with a thousand kisses,

With a gaze so soft-

A gaze i pray one would return.

Will I ever be loved so intensely

That my existence alone bewitches someone?

Will I be wanted so deeply

That a moment apart from me

Wretches apart their soul?

Will there ever come a day

Where I need not grip my own waist,

Cup my own face,

Reach my arms out

Only to find nobody waiting for them?

Or will I lose all this love within my body

And mourn the self that once

Waited with eager eyes for that day

When I would be desired with such intensity

It nearly suffocates my very soul?

Will I shake my head at this self

And watch as their heart so full of love

Crumbles to a hundred fragments?

I want to whisper those three words

I want to brush someone's hair back

When it falls onto their face,

I want to place my hands on their chest

As I lean in to kiss their grinning cheeks.

And, oh, how I despise the feeling of my face falling

At the empty words I hear

After i speak my truth.

How I despise thinking,

"I mustn't say so much-

This person will not reciprocate what I feel."
