This is a piece I wrote a couple of years ago. Although, in posting it, I have edited a few things. Like I always say, "Like Nature, Nothing is Complete, unless it's changing."

Passion

The passion in my soul often overtakes me,
I cannot hide what my heart cannot deny.
I may sometimes say what I do not entirely mean,
There are times I cry and have no idea why.
But I assure you, not a single day passes
that I don’t care.
I often sit and wonder why I even bother,
But then I realize it is something inherent
to my soul..
But you must tell me something…
why does it frighten you so?
Would you prefer that I let it go,
Become cold and unable to Love?
Unable to Anger,
Unable to surrender to the Passion that often
Overcomes me in your Presence?
I say No,
Because if you would,
You don’t Truly Love me.
