clean love

Felicity

i realized so much more
today as i opened my eyes
the meaning of this feeling
goes deeper than before
every day you teach me
a little something extra
you have shown me
tiny little excerpts
one at a time
until i settle down enough
to listen and think
so many times
i have ignored you
or been angry at your ways
or felt finished with you
yet you never gave up
then i come to this point
where i see what you mean
i understand even more
about you, and us
you have pushed me away
time and time again
until i learn the lesson
me, resisting being told
you, accusing me of stubbornness
me, not trusting you are right
you, waiting patiently, patiently for me
me, finally opening my eyes
you, looking so happy at me
my god, you are so gorgeous
when you give me that smile
of intimate knowing between us
i tickle inside with bubbling laughter
no one has even made me feel
so much pure joy
(nor deepest pain)
i want to know
you feel that inside, like me
i've been too urgent, too wanting
i took a long time to love myself
but now that i do
i no longer worry
that you love me
it's a given, it's forever
and never will i lose
this passion for you
it's intrinsic, integral to who i am
and now i see
the meaning of this clean love
unlike any ever before
our transcendent beings
aligned with each other
in rhythm and motion and mood
you helped me to shine
and i love you for that
beautiful

I surelly would love to be the one who receives those words.
