LOVE SIMPLY IS
Love cannot be expressed
shared or experienced
through a veil of conditions
or preconceived notions
Love longs to be known
to be felt
to comfort
to be received
I LOVE YOU beyond the fear
that causes your restriction
beyond the pain
that fills you with suspicion
beyond the apathy
that keeps you apart
Indifferent
complacent
judging
BEING "in love"With You -- I am!
Though you may retreat to your island
Fall over sandbars
wading lost around the inlet sand mazes
of your mind
where panic may consume you
inner demons torment you
YET Love does not require you to BE "in love" -- with me
And loves inability to be contained will reach out and touch you
Even in your darkest corners
where resistance may overwhelm you
but in the absence of Joy
AND even -- as you deny it
LOVE -- SIMPLY IS...
