Don't fear

Don't be afraid if I just say "I love you",
It doesn't mean, far from it, please, believe,
That it is you with whom I am in love in real.
It means I love your spirit, love the way you are,
I love the soul in you, I love inquisitive mind.

Don't shy my love, I beg, don't shy such love as mine,
Cause it is not what matters much, no bond or lust.

My love for you is just sweet dreams, not more,
That stay with me, that I could share with all.
Just know, I love not you, I love the way you are,
I love your gentle spirit, love inquiring mind.

I'm lucky in a way, my love doesn't ask for gain,
Don't grudge me love obtained with so much pain.
It stays with me, it helps endure the strife,
Be what you are, be free, be restful in your life.

Don't be afraid, my love will never bring you pain.
I love the way you are, that's all, it is no more than that.
Be what you are, be you, be what I love and care,
Oh, does it seem too much, oh, do I ask to share?!

You, a playful soul, the dearest one, with your engaging smile, I can never stand it. You are the sun that brightens this place. Yes, there is always someone or something your soul aspires to, thanks God!

Marikia...I love your poem...it speaks very strongly of a spiritual love that has no demands or obligations, just a purity of souls. Well done. handshake hug

This is the philosophy of the ages, Marikia, well put, i loved it...applause i feel this is what true and pure 'mother-love' is all about...

Rightly expressed!

Reminds me of the opposite:

It's you I like
Not the clothes you wear
Not the way you do your hair
It's you I like

Good Job!
