Only a fool believes
Love is weakness or strength, exclusively.
The bane of one’s existence,
Blinded by rays of false security,
Without admitting it dictates strength,
When selfless and honest.
Only a fool believes
Love can only be between lovers.
To remember a special moment
And occasionally spoil another,
To look back after an argument
And feel the weight of regretted words,
To embrace their faults
And forgive unconditionally,
All say I love you.
In spite of your wrongdoings,
I will continue to love you,
As a friend, sister, daughter, niece, cousin,
And all that come after.
Because nothing says, I love you
More than honesty – nothing says
I cannot; it is who I am.
