Except from POET IN EXILE

This Is Love
Ricardo Saul LaRosa

As the sunrises over this world; my world,

It is your smile that brightens my existence,
You accepted me with all my faults,
Never judging,
Never condemning,
Never looking back at my past mistakes,

As the moon lights the Earth’s darkness,

It is your eyes that shines my path with inspirations,
Always encouraging me,
Always believing in me,
Always seeing the best in me,

As the birds sing their morning madrigals,

It is your sweet voice that clams my restless soul,
Assuring me that all is fine,
Assuring me that everything will work out,
Assuring me that we were meant to be,

As millions of star light up the night skies,

It is your kisses that lights the love deep in my heart,
Loving me sweetly,
Loving me adoringly,
Loving me as though it were our last time together,

You are Love!

My love!
My strength is the love you give me,
My world is a beautiful place made by you,

 Except from POET IN EXILE
My heart’s passions are yours,
My dreams come true,
My reason for living,
And dying,

This is love:
I had no diamond ring to give you,
I could only give you a turquoise ring with a little moose on it,
You accepted it profoundly,
No complaints,
No remorse,
Nothing but love radiating from you,

This is love:
I had no mansion on a hill to give you,
I could only give you a small shack on a farm,
You accepted it intensely,
No grumbling,
No grievance,
Nothing but an immense happiness from you,

This is love:
I had no gold nor silver to give you,
I could only give you the love that is in my heart;
Two strong arms to work from sunrise to sunset for us,
You accepted me without any doubts,
No second thoughts,
No wavering,
Nothing but the greatest love I have ever know in this life,

This is love!
This is love!
This is love:
You,
And you alone!
