Until I can't love you anymore..

Until I can't love you anymore.
I have loved you with all I have.
And will continue until all my energy has been drained
Pulled out of my body in a vortex, spiralling in emptiness.


Until I can't love you anymore,
Tears create floods, swans sit on dirty water where fields once were.
I isolate myself on an island for a short while
To clean out the debris.

Until I can't love you anymore,
And you throw more and more my way,
Endless tests to my compassion.
And yet I still love you.

Until I can't love you anymore,
This may never be.
I will love others, just as deeply,
Responding to the rhythms.

Until I can't love anyone anymore.
And I die a little death.
For the cycles will begin again.
Loving innocently and purely.
