My Love for You

My love for you is not a fiery storm
that arrives raging at your doors
It is a soothing breeze
caressing your face,
almost imperceptible.
It is not a raging tide
that engulfs your shores in passion
It is a ripple in still water
that sends a calm lake quivering.
My love for you is not dazzling
like a sky set ablaze by sun
It is like stars
that burn like embers in the night.
My love for you is not infinite
Oh, no. It is tiny, almost ethereal.
