about loving...

a poem written by a dear friend. just thought of sharing this with you.

in my haunts,
i realized that you're not the man
i've always wanted
and more.
love is funny,
and we laugh with tears
at this amazing beauty
of you and me
certain in uncertainty-

and here in your cappucino eyes
is all i ever wanna be.
angry, confused,
in love with you.
and i can't explain
with all my thinking
why i stayed-
or ever thought of leaving,
i was lost from the start
here with you.

and without even understanding,
i know i understand-
that love is beyond
understanding.

with or without stars
i'll hold your hand,
hold my ground.
stick around.
for you.
