Passion

This is a confession of sorts, slightly embarrassing but I am proud to post it.

Passion is more

More than sex, love, lust

Passion is strength

Emotion - raw and uncut

 

Instead of hurt, anguish

Instead of happiness, elation

Instead of sadness, despair

Instead of like, adoration

 

Feelings are heightened,

Ever stronger and deeper

Blood than burns and boils

Eyes that smolder and simmer

 

Nary a case of the blah’s

To be found in his soul

His mind and his heart

I value more than gold

 

I know I have issues but

He makes life feel sane

If he asked, I’d leave

I hope he feels the same

 

Sometimes I worry

That I’m not enough

And sometimes I pester

Give me your love!

 

I worry he thinks

I just need a boost

That he is just there

So I can feel worth

 

And while that’s part true

He lifts my soul higher

I want to prove

That it’s him I desire

 

Not just the way

I feel good when he’s near

The way I admire

The strength of his character

 

This man I love

I’ll be by his side

Through anguish and elation

Through despair and adoration

 

If you want a partner

To share each life

I can think of none other

I’d want by my side

 

This is my pledge

I’ll be your companion

Through all life’s struggles

My man of passion

This is a cute poem. Probably a confession to someone you admire, or have been loving for years. I love how much raw emotion is coursing through this piece!
