Love

I love you here, in the moment, 
without any fear of what the future holds for us.
I love you when you’re down, when you’re up 
and everything in between.
I love you when you talk about yourself
and when you listen so attentively.
I love the pain your family has passed onto you
and the new stories you’re agreeing to.
I love your smile as if my heart itself is laughing,
how your embraces soften my posture.
I love how you’re unafraid to imagine,
sharing the stories we’ve yet to experience.
I love how deeply you long to know me,
how important it is for you to make me feel special
I love the freedom of our love.
How solid love is when loved in trust.
