Love, I Love You
Love, I love you
not only for what you are,
but for what I am when I
am with you.
I love you, not only for
what
you have made of yourself,
but for what you are making
of me.
I love you for the part
of me
that you bring out, I love
you
for reaching out and touching
my heart,
and passing over all the
foolish, weak things
that you can't help simply
seeing there,
and for drawing out into
the light
all the beautiful belongings
that no one else had looked
quite far enough to find.
Love is entrusting our faults
to one another.
Love is belonging in each
other's thoughts
with care as well as feeling.
Love is beautiful. You are
enhanced by my love.
I am enhanced by you,
Love. I love because of
you,
and you are the reason for
all of my tomorrows.
Your love makes my life
complete.
