I knew that I loved you
when I could look at you
and see nothing but sapphire skies
and emerald valleys.
When I saw summer showers
in your hair and in your eyes,
sunflowers.
When I heard the wind
in your laugh and felt the river
in your touch.
I knew that I loved you
when I felt all of that
and instead of needing to own it
all I could do
was embrace the nature
within you.
If there is control
it is not love.
