Love, I Love You

Love, I love you
    not only for what you are,
    but for what I am when I am with you.
    I love you, not only for what
    you have made of yourself,
    but for what you are making of me.
    I love you for the part of me
    that you bring out, I love you
    for reaching out and touching my heart,
    and passing over all the foolish, weak things
    that you can't help simply seeing there,
    and for drawing out into the light
    all the beautiful belongings
    that no one else had looked
    quite far enough to find.
    Love is entrusting our faults to one another.
    Love is belonging in each other's thoughts
    with care as well as feeling.
    Love is beautiful. You are enhanced by my love.
    I am enhanced by you,
    Love. I love because of you,
    and you are the reason for all of my tomorrows.
    Your love makes my life complete.
