zealot's overflowing passion/committment

(i've written out my life for you but considered putting it on special paper, maybe you'd accept it better that way)



so here it is crisp white perfection, the best of the best for your eyes to read about every part of where i stand in life around you, you made me weaker then i was ready to be this time but you persisted, pushed me to the edge of logical reason, filled me with passion, and kept holding on...



(how goes this battle?)



but i was only the weakest when i needed to be strong and fight off your outpour of emotion, you were never supposed to react this way to me, no one ever has and i'm not prepared for the long nights of cheek to cheek connection, questionless affection...



(easier then the war?)



you held me closer when i ran away whispered softly that you had plans to never let me go, asked me to lay my head down and stop worrying about the ending and just the fairy-tale at hand, i didn't want to give up being scared, but one look at you, your hand in mine...



(you've won this time, you've won)



a promise is a promise is a promise, and you've made them all to me, and i won't ask you to take them back this time, please don't turn on me i never used a word i didn't mean, you're talking to my ear again, softly, sweetly... love was alright baby...



(love was just alright)

Author's Notes/Comments: 

a zealot is someone who believe so passionately in something that they would do anything for it.
this poem is not autobiographical in the sence that is has happened... but in the sense that my inhibitions about love are there, just never had someone to prove me wrong.

I never, ever want you to give yourself up for me, for anyone but yourself. Remember that you are tbe most important person in the world, and that no matter what happens, I'll always be there for you, and if you ever ask me to jump, to let go of my fears, for you, I would do anything. I would dream for the rest of my life if it meant that I could hold on to you just one more time.
