Analysis of The Truth Of Tenderness
My love for you is unlike a feeling
It does not cause pain but rather my keen being
Unknowing of my hearts raw force
Though knowing my name on your lips to be my only source
The sound of your laugh awakens my own
My regretful smile at leaving my home
You are my tree house, my comfort
Your orbit the culprit to my eternal descent

About this poem
This signifies innocent love and his raw emotions towards a being. It is natural and underwhelming as I believe love to be.
