Arguments

You are like an unvanquished fortress. Your scathing accuracy scares me, sometimes. The words are burning in your mouth. They have an essence, an intrinsic value and a meaning to unleash my mind. The words you throw away are whipping up the ideas. They are ripping off their meaning, when this meaning is too logical. Your arguments become swords for cornering the forces of the reason and for releasing them to self, But when I hold you with my eyesight, you transform yourself apparently into another person, and you simply say, ''I love you.'' ‘Tis a defense.

The fire of your words ignites the air, Each syllable carries a weight, A profound essence that awakens my thoughts. The phrases you cast aside stir a tempest of ideas, Stripping away their rigid meanings, When logic becomes too confining. Your reasoning wields the sharpness of a blade, Confronting the very essence of rationality, Yet, in the moment our gazes entwine, You metamorphose into a vision of tenderness, Softly whispering, 'I love you.' It is a shield, a gentle armor.
