How Will I Know Love?
Today, I surrender. I will no longer settle.
To the gods of our world, please answer me one question: How will I know love?
How will I know I'm drinking passion and not poison? How will I know I'm hugging hope and not hate? How will I know that I chose peace and not pain?
I want the kind of love that wakes all of my senses,
the kind that makes me sing in the shower and call in late for work,
the kind that makes me breakfast and eats me for dinner,
the kind that feels like calculus because its limit does not exist.
I want that kind of love.
A desire so rich, but I have spent all I have.
A heart so open, I don't know who to evict.
How will I know love?
