WHY I LOVE     © 1997 by Myron Schreck
 
I have fallen in love several times in my life, and I know how sweet it feels. In the right situation, at the right time of life, and if she loves me. Well if words could explain how love shields the pain of loneliness and helplessness, I could tell you why –– why I love
 
Each time that I've loved --- each different romance ---opened up my life. I learned how to give unafraid of the chance I might lose, should love be denied. Well if words could express how love brings a rest to anxiousness and reticence, I could tell you why –– why I love
 
And when I'm not in love --- I take my time and get my life together. Don't have to look for love --- I know it will find me.  And in the strangest place, I might be hearing a voice whisper words of affection – sounds that only I know. And look into eyes that mirror my reflection – and welcome me home. And if words could reveal how complete I feel – to share a love – and care for a love … Then you'd know why –– why I love.
