True Love

If  I could show what a friend is all about…

I’d bring the necklace of trust and the

bracelet of respect.

If I could tell you what a mother ought to be

She’d wear dedication and strength as her

perfume.

If I had to show you what a lover is…

I’d show you that honey can come from lips

and paradise can be felt with your body.

But if I had to show you what true love is…

I’d show you that loving someone more than

yourself can make the heart the whitest,

purest silk that has been purified ten

thousand times in the essence of love.
