If only I could tell you
just how much
you mean to me..
If I could communicate
the way I see you
through this blinded
eye of mine..

Too bad that language,
which, indeed, is sharpest
of my razors..
cannot even hope
to cut at truths like these.
Though I will try..

You are the deepest
love of mine.
Because I love you
not for anything
that you may
ever give.
I love you..
just because you live.

Because
you’ve seen me
through my worst..
and even when I tried
to push you far away..
you still found strength
to care.
And even when
I didn’t see your truth
as clearly as I do
right now
and didn’t treat
you fair.

Through pain,
you were the structure
keeping us together..
when I was distrustful,
calloused, and weak.
You held me..
and you made me
realize.. I’m home.
You are not playing
with my heart.
There is no trick.

All that you wanted
was for me to love you
purely..
not to leave..
to still be there.
And now that I am
at my strongest..
rest assured.
I am not going
anywhere.

And even when
we are apart..
I will still hold
an image
of your Geist..
within the deepest
chambers
of my heart.

Your love
never again
shall I forsake.
And my commitment
towards making you
the happiest of girls
alive upon this planet
is no burden.
It’s the easiest of yokes..
and the lightest of weights.
