What is it about that word?
What is it that makes it different
From "Like" or "Admire" or "Respect"?
Why is it that after years of avoiding it
We give up on it, before ever really knowing it?
I-quit-I-give-up-Too-much-like-work, I said.
And life was simple,
Uncomplicated by some entanglement with Another.
Then came You.
Unannounced, and uninvited,
But welcome, for all that.
It isn't supposed to be this easy.
It takes work, takes effort.
Everyone says so.
Don't they?
But what if it is?
What if it is.just.this.easy?
I don't question it anymore.
I don't doubt it anymore.
I don't avoid it,
Not anymore.
How can I, now that I know?
I love you.
About this piece: It just doesn't have to be that hard.
I never knew.
Until I did.

It's just that simple. So glad you've found it, and it has found you.
"I don't question it anymore.
I don't doubt it anymore."
You said it. This is how it should be. Pure and simple.
Hopefully we'll all be there someday:)
Beautiful! I'm very happy for you and you do say it so well. Wonderful post for the day!

Isn't it great when the light dawns. :)
Aw.
Well you old softy, you. ;-)
The ease of something real brings laughter to the surface.
Heartfelt and simple, you portray the essence of love. Simply beautiful, stuff people can relate to.
"I don't avoid it,
Not anymore."
how I wish one is taught to accept it so simply early in life?
Wonderful words for experience that life goes through for simple lessons.
The ifs...they are a lot, but realizing after all that you love the person, hold no weight anymore as love is as powerful than anything else in the world!

Beautiful. You're positively radiating happiness lately, and that makes me so very happy for you. For both of you.
Uncomplicated by some entanglement with Another.
Love this whole post, Loving the idea of love that un-complicates us :)
Love is like that. We give up, then something happens to reignite the flame. After that, nothing matters but love itself. Very nice.
