What Love Truly Is

A heart’s quiet confession of love that cannot be claimed

By LUNA EDITHPublished 19 days ago 1 min read

I wouldn’t explain love with borrowed words—

I would show you its fire, its truth.

How can I hold you close

when your heart belongs to another?

Had you been mine,

I would have revealed

what love truly is.
