True Love

True love doesn't possess you, it releases you.
It doesn't create any expectation. Instead, it frees you from all expectations.
It is the shape of the clouds in its pinkish hue of evening sun..
That inspires you to create a painting.
It is a fruit slowly taking shape in your backyard, changing colors..
That uplifts you to learn and grow.
It is an app that is so convenient to use..
It puts a smile on your face for the rest of the day.
It is a smell that comes out of nowhere..
But makes you feel alive and healthy.
It is a cigarette that burns itself..
To give a temporary release to the smoker.
It is that stranger who seems like nobody..
Who says something on his way out that sticks with you for the rest of your life.
It is that secret lover that never mentions their feelings..
But allows you to be who you are whenever you are with them.
If you want to be happy, learn to identify what true love looks like.
False love is a metaphor for control. No matter how real the feelings are.
True love is a metaphor for change. No matter how much pain it causes.
