When I do have love.

When I do have love.

I will stare at you as you speak.

I'm trying to understand what you're saying.

Not how to answer it.

I accept your feelings.

Hear what you think.

See your soul.

When I do have love.

I listened and chose to let my defense go.

I hear you.

And don't judge right or wrong.

When I don't understand.

I also ask you to clarify what I don't understand.

When I do have love.

I allow you to touch me deeply.

Even though I might get hurt by it.

Let me tell you something.

My dream, my hope, my injury.

And what brings me joy.

I also share with you where I failed.

Where is it? I think it's not bad.

When I do have love.

I'll laugh with you.

But sometimes I mock you humorously.

I'll talk to you.

Instead of lecturing you.

When I do have love.

I will respect your space.

Instead of squeezing in.

I will wander around your boundaries.

Or take a few steps back.

Until you feel comfortable letting me in.

I won't force you to tell your secret.

I wait.

Until you choose to expose them to me.

When I do have love.

I put my life script aside.

Bring the show to an end.

For better or worse, beauty and ugliness.

I just have to be myself.

I'd like to see everything about you, too.

For better or worse.

Beautiful or ugly?
