I’ve Learned; True Love
As I sat there
my heart exploded
out into the universe.
I never felt such a thing
and it was so real.
A concrete feeling
we all can achieve
we just have to have an open heart
and find true love.
It took me so long to find
that part of the feeling
was losing it…
When I thought it was being taken away from me
I tried to hold onto it with everything I had.
I felt my heart expand
while I thought of you.
Everyday I loved you more
how I long for that same feeling
to overtake me again.
Except now I realize
I can conquer it
that it doesn’t have to consume me
that it will always be there
when I need it.
When I need to remember
how much I love you
no mater what.
I wish I could bottle up that love,
dissect my heart
to see just what it was that imploded
out into the world
where it will remain
until my presence no longer
needs to be here.
I strive for that feeling again
to get there, somehow.
To really have evidence of love
true love…
can save the world.
And it takes two
who despite it all
come back to each other
like it was meant to be.
And now I know
true love can save the world
whether it’s between a child and parent
or between two lovers.
Always be willing to save the world,
for only true love,
and the feeling it brings
to an explosive heart,
is what I strive for.
In the end,
it’s all that’s left
and the memory of a feeling
so concrete
it’s supernatural at its core
not just folklore.
