Love Paradox

I will keep quiet when you raise your voice.

I will be still when you react violently.

I will crack a joke when you’re irritated.

I will be your rock when you falter or cry

I will hold you in my arms when you reject me.

I will love you during your darkest hours.

For men are boys posing to be men.

For a woman is their weakness whom he draws strength and inspiration.

This is the great paradox of love.

Men, do not be afraid to unmask your weaknesses

Because she has the instinctive care of a mother

...a woman who will show you unconditional love.

Call it martyrdom…

I say it’s selfless love.
