Love Poem: Genuine love

Genuine love

The word simple is so beautiful to me,
Even though I know I could speak intelligently,
I choose not to... here's why,
Would I want you to feel less valuable in my eyes,
People will relate your speech to their levels of communication and understanding,
I will not hide behind my intelligence to intimidate or safeguard my surroundings,
I would not use it as a shield to protect my heart,
Because I would rather be simple than off the charts smart,
I want that freedom, the ability to understand,
To relate and share your heart shows the courage of a man,
I will forever be simple...such a beautiful thing,
I enjoy the knowledge to know, but genuine love is my everything.
