I Understand Now

I Understand Now

A Poem by Sunset Girl
"

"I love you for you I am when I'm with you"

"

I never used to understand

The saying…

“I love you,

For who I am,

When I’m with you.”

 

I always thought

You should love a person

For they are

Not who they make you

You should be yourself

 

But I may understand now

What that saying really means

How you can be yourself

Around someone

And love them for that

 

It’s how they can bring

Yourself more clearly to yourself

Make you want to be

Truly to yourself

Cause they love the real you

 

They are that person

Who you can be completely

One hundred percent completely

Your true self with

Every dream, hope, fear

 

Every goal seems more important

Every dream seems obtainable

Your confidence radiates

You see the world a little different

And you love yourself a little more

 

I never understood

How you could love someone

Because of who they make you

Till I mat the person

Who made me understand

. my soul mate makes me better than i am ... more compassionate ... more resilient ... more powerful too ... it's taken me a while to understand what he means to me as we're not together since quite some time ... but he inspires me constantly ... and when i listen closely to the wind ... i can hear his heartbeat whisper ... and make me want to be the best i can be ... for him ... for us ... for love ... thank you for reminding me of all of that with this soulful piece of writing ... it's absolutely unforgettable and very, very precious ...

About
Writing can help one express what they can't seem to explain verbally. My poems are mostly about life, love and relationships. I started writing more when I thought people just wouldn't understand me.. more..
