This Love

This love was just a game of fun
  where did these feelings come from?
Wasn't looking for it in any way
  never dreamed it would come today.
You didn't need me or my quirks
  didn't call my name at first,
then there it was, 
  waiting for the pause.

What makes love breathe
  causing stirs in the heart to beat
for only you, your nearness, your smile indiscreet, 
 your kisses and your body heat?

What dreams brought it to life,
 isn't living enough of the eternal fight?
Who can describe it's emotional treasure
 where once life without, could not be measured.

I'll take it now, heart open, thinking clear.
 Hold it close, near and dear
despite the efforts, fear of its loss 
 what's worth giving has no measured cost.
Here it is, my open heart
 beating to the rhythm of your counterpart.
Take it, keep it safe, forever cherished
 without its protective care, I perish.
