This Is Love

«I feel understood.» You whispered to me.
Your dreams preceded my own, as far as I could see
I loved you more than I loved myself, don’t you see it’s not right
You say it’s wrong for leaving you behind, please don’t stand in my way.
Please don’t stand.
I have let you go because I love you. Please believe that I’m alone but I’m not
lonely.
And if you’d wished the same for me, I could’ve stayed with you.
I could’ve stayed with you.
Close your eyes, bite your tongue and breathe. I am pleased to say:
That we are free to go and be. This is love. True love.
