Only Love

 

My reason for pursuing you

was not just an answer

to nature’s call to procreate.

Only love.

 

I had no ulterior motives,

no hidden agendas,

or evil schemes.

Only love.

 

Though angry emotions flare,

they’re always quickly replaced,

overshadowed by a constant;

only love.

 

Your fickleness kills me,

but at the end of the day

guess what’s left?

Only love.

 

Confusion runs rampant,

fleeing through my head,

pursuing the unattainable.

Only love.

 

Unfair is the way you change your mind,

unjust is the way you treat me at times.

Still, it’s all I have.

Only love.

 

So keep your suppositions,

your musings on my reasoning

to yourself my dearest. I have

only love.

 

No longer do you know me,

and apparently never did,

but still it remains.

Only love.

 

Do not presume to judge

what I feel or how I act,

cuz it’s all for you, my

only love.

 

So I beseech you,

treat me fairly,

or you risk destroying this

only love.

Once again you have delved into a deep intimate Truth and it is one I know well. How beautiful is unconditional love. Such flow and the repetition of "only love" seems to drvie home the persistence of the unselfishness and constantt opening of the heart that unconditional love provides an individual..Beautiful flow..wonderful write!
