Is this love?

QuietPoetInTheCorner

You smile at me briefly before you kiss my lips,

Is this what love is?

You call me cute before you pull me close,

Is this what love is?

You accept my flaws before you help me fix them,

Is this what love is?

You wake me when I'm screaming before soothing me to sleep,

Is this what love is?

You wipe away my tears before bringing forth laughter,

Is this what love is?

You take away my mask before welcoming what's underneath,

Is this what love is?

You say those three words before I say them back,

 

This is what love is.
