I Would Love You Anyway

air that sits heavily in my lungs
paralyzing and content;
i gaze at a moon.

she drowns weeping lonelies.

i gaze at the sun

she brightens haunted corners.

hold my heart and remember;
if the world disappeared;
if i'd never said any of it...

i would love you anyway.

a heart that beats steadily in silence
tears that float down a muddied river...
i listen to her smiles

they shout in euphoric bliss

i listen to her eyes

they whisper in serenaded rainbow

hold my heart and remember;
if the rivers ran dry
and my lungs filled with their water;
had i never met you;

i would love you anyway;

hope washes over me
and leaves as the ocean's tide
only to return in playfulness...
had you never loved me;

i would love you anyway.
