Honesty And Truths. Poem by PAUL COLVIN

Your honesty releases, emotions deep within,
So many years I tried for these but always locked them in.
Your honest mind and heart so pure, they were the perfect key,
Unlocking chains around my heart and then you set me free.

Freedom’s what you’ve given me, a freedom of expression
So when we talk, straight from the heart, I have no indecision.
My instant words are honest truths, I cannot tell you lies
For when we meet, you’d know I’d lied, when I look in your eyes.

At nights when we are on our own, you make me feel at ease,
My mind’s a perfect setting, I’m here for you, to please.
Some caring words in tender times are all we need to hear,
With compliments, so often paid, by both of us my dear.

Fidelity’s a complex word that people can relate to
Yet you and I, are very rare, loyal through and through.
Degrading thoughts from so called friends, should always be ignored,
Instead, just listen to your heart, true love should be adored.

True to love, true to yourself, is the best that we can strive for
For once you learn to love yourself, you then can love another.
There’s nothing wrong in what we do, it’s in the name of love,
Two people who have feelings, strong, is sanctioned from above.

Happiness is part of life but part of love as well,
I pray our love’s eternal, I’ve spent my time in hell.
My life is full because of you and hope you feel the same,
Love’s for life and life’s for love so don’t feel any shame.
