my love for us
does not so much show up in romantic whispers
in rose peddled bedsheets
or grand gestures
it delights in our honest
expression and playfulness
in being open and present
to the space we each need
it rests in listening
with curiosity
in hearing you
without judgement
it lies in acceptance of the shadows
that cloud and obstruct our togetherness
in holding us lightly
and in letting each other go
with love in our hearts
when we need to move on
