I Love You... Poem by Cymberli Renai

I love you, but i'm not in love with you.
This is a false distinction.
Completely backward if you think about it.
Love is love.
What's really meant by being 'in love' is obsession, infatuation, but not actual love.
Being 'in love' is a statement of your own needs and desires rather than an attempt to fullfill another's.
True love, on the other hand, is a bridge between two people.

It had taken her most of her life, and all of her afterlife, to come to this realization.
