A Love Poem

I promise this is not
A typical love poem.
I promise insight.
I promise 
To explain.

I promise to love.
I will give all that
My heart reflects,
Beyond the eye 
Of the person I'm with.

I know not my own heart
For it gives only to you.
It gives in the moment,
That's my reality                                                                                 photo by Denise A White

My love is a butterfly,
Emerged from its cacoon
In a blaze of sunlight.
It flits from one flower 
To a bush; it flits. 

I promised this was not a typical love poem.
I promised-
