Soul Of Life Poem by Deja Still

From the beginning, I have loved you...
I loved you first when I wasn't capable of knowing;
I loved you when I didn't grasp that love is
unselfish and without sin.
I loved you when I thought love could only bring happiness;
I loved you when my heart felt the loss of something priceless;
I loved you when I realized time doesn't wait.
I loved you when I accepted living separate lives;
I loved you when I hoped for the best life for you without me.
I loved you when I saw your true colors along with mine;
I have loved you when you were near and when you weren't around to see.
And still today I continue to love you...
I love you unconditionally and in the form of a blessing;
I love you exactly the way God designed love to be;
In a way that love is strong, deep, pure, wise and undying.
I've come to love you to the fullest capacity;
by the twists and turns and lessons that life is meant to bring.
Love is no longer a mystery, a simple feeling of emotion,
or a sense of purpose and belonging;
It is the true soul of life and my soul as well.
My love for you is a never-ending river; locked in my soul,
that will continue to expand forever;
and flow around you for all eternity.
You will always remain my friend, my other half and my soul mate.
I love you...
