This Love...

Is love just but an illusion?

It sneaks in and takes your soul captive and enslaves your mind.

You do things yet untold with all the zeal you can muster.

In no time you cannot imagine an existence without love.

Just as suddenly, love takes to flight, like a bird out of the cage.

Leaving one stunned, confused, frightened, disoriented.

The legs give way and you forget how to stand let alone walk.

Breathing becomes laborious as you try to comprehend.

But in my soul it has sought permanent residence.

It refused to dissipate, but instead broods as it awaits its other love.

None can complete the love left by another.

That's why I will not stop loving you.

You are my breath, my laughter, my dance, my life.

Stay with me my love, for without you I die a little more each day.

Don't let me die of a broken heart my darling. 

It's all I ask.
