The way you love
is blazing. There is
fire in your heart
and it warms and spreads
sparks fire in those
you love. When you say
"I love you", I say
it back. Your love
incinerates doubts.
The way you love
is generous. You tell me
I'm pretty every time
you see me and you tell
each of your friends
they're pretty and you pour
love into each of us
as if it's endless and we
accept everything you give.
The way you love
is open. You let me
in your heart among
so many and there is
space for all of us and if
this was a contest, your heart
would be the biggest, but we
are the real winners because
nobody loves like you.
