One plus One is One

My first Happy Love poem

By SalAmaNdeRPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

One plus One is One

In my heart, I've known for quite some time

That it belongs to you... it's no longer mine...

This love that I have is yours for the taking

And I say, without shaking

That my feelings for you are strong.

What is love? You may ask

It's not an emotion, but an act.

It's what we do for whom we belong.

I'll always be there when you need me.

Caring and attentive, I respectfully

treat you as an equal. As a companion.

We could walk, side by side

With long or short strides

TOGETHER... we can get through thick and thin.

You've always seen me for who I am

Accepted my "good" as well as my "bad"

This duality that lies within us all.

To know this give me power

To accept it gives me strength

To get through every hour

Regardless of it's length

To be able to pick myself up when I fall.

But when times get harder

We need to use anchors

In the dark, we need a bright light...

To me, the obvious choice.

A laugh, a smile... and Your Voice...

I am eternally grateful to have YOU in my life

Hello : ,

I'm just hoping to find a place to share my thoughts and feelings... Even the darker ones...

Maybe even get some feedback/constructive criticism.

It'd also be pretty awesome if I was able to reach a few people.

I'd like that : ,
