before I met you

I loved you 

before I met you

as surprising 

as that seems 

 

love 

is not finding

someone else or

something else

to make me 

whole 

 

love

already existed

in me

before I ever 

laid eyes on you

had it not 

you would never 

have seen 

the spark

never have known

that my love 

is not reserved

for you 

alone

but for everyone

which is why

I know

that I loved you 

before I met you

How sweetly honest!.....so being loved by someone else does not complete us. we are complete because we ourselves have love within...I adore this way of being. Our bodies are the comb, the honey makes us whole. therefore we are complete. Perfect!

Very simple, Very profound! :)

I love it! It's perfect and I can relate completely with the feelings expressed.
