I Love You

Formless and shapeless

Love is wild

Love is tame

Love is soft

Love is strong

I pray to a God I do not love, so that I may love others

I pity us

Doomed to love with a love that is not perfect

Our love is vain

Our love is fickle

Our love can fail

There is a sweetness in this bitterness

I love the small loves the most

I held them in their cries

I smiled at them on the days they could not smile

I told them of a future they could believe in

Not all loves are grandiose

I love humanity

We are all flawed and that is okay

Brothers and sisters

Complicated, hurt, and imperfect like me

Happy, hopeful, and kind like me

Strange, that we do not love more

And yet, you begged for love once or twice

Some have given me grand joys

Some have given me slight smirks and chuckles

In a life filled with sharp edges

Love is a gentle feather from the whitest dove

I have said “I love you”

I think it means many things

Maybe you were a light for me on a dark night

Maybe you offered me small concessions

Maybe you eased my soul on a lonely day

Not always a romantic rush

Not always deepest desires fulfilled

Sometimes just a kind word

Sometimes simple companionship

But if I say “I love you”

You can be sure of one thing

You made me happy, even in a small way

I wish you happiness friend

I love you

I hope you all learn to love too

I still have to learn
