unrelenting

Her merciless kindness
turned my heart to the dust from whence it came
every other lover I had ever known used love
as a tool, a means to an end
a way of getting something without cost
favor without price for them
no matter how heavy the toll exacted from me
I was unprepared for her
a richness beyond rare
her favors priceless
for she had a mind I could make love to
she had an unrelenting way about her
that gave passion its good name
and gave me my inspiration back
