Affection Or Love?

Like anyone feeling so alone,
I had mixed-up feelings
about loving someone;
but before I could hardly
understand and recognize 
affection from love;
now,waking up to reality...
I have to analyze
this misconception,
which kept me under a cloud...

What could it really be...
affection or love?
These two deep emotions
are two different things...
separate one from the other,
and choose the one that
suits your needs
and you'll get a super-feeling!
What could it really be...
affection or love?
Either one holds forever...
the promise of giving!

Sometimes the need for both
starts up this bizarre confusion;
my true purpose in life
is giving of myself...
and I must give without end,
because that's what I hold within!
And whomever I'll love,
that heart can be sure of my intention,
and of the love
 I'll express inside!

What could it really be...
affection or love?
I've stopped questioning myself,
and I'm ready to surrender
to the lucky one who gives of herself;
I've made my choice today...
affection and love
I will give without fear!
