Confession #3 from my book “let it be known”

I love you; 

unconditionally and without regret, 

openly without fearing others opinions

and without shame, I love you.

deeply, with utmost compassion and

absolute conviction. and I love you like this, every day, 

not just on a day designated to the act and will of it, but always,

in all moments, and so it will remain,

until you will have me no more,

or smooth complexions give way to wrinkles and parchment skin

and we inhale the world and exhale utterances no more.
