I Love you

my Love for you remains authentic.
do you doubt that?

when I was young - people told me I was naïve
ignorant - foolish.

I was never ignorant.
never a fool.

I understood Love -
its consequences.

at the extremity?
desolation

to lose it all.
and still -

I Loved you.
and still -

I Love you.
