This Thing Called Love

by Nikki R. Holmes

Whenever the thought of losing you crosses my mind, 
I just can’t seem to get my heart out of that bind. 
With you my heart is never broken 
and because of that my love to you is my token.

Even when there are no words spoken, 
my heart can still hear your love for me singing loud and clear. 
No matter how many obstacles I have to conquer 
or the many challenges I have yet to face that I may fear. 
No matter how far away you are or even how near 
my shoulders for you will always be here.
 
I want to be that shoulder you lean on, and that hand you hold. 
I want to be your warmth in the wintertime on those days that it’s cold. 
I want to love you from the inside out, 
and when we make love it’s so good that I have to shout. 

Sometimes I feel it’s so real 
that the heavens must have sent it from above 
and then there are some days that I’m really scared. 
Scared of this thing called love.
