Explanation

Love.
What is love?
Is it a flower to be plucked,
Only to wither and die?
Is it honesty or a lie?
Is it faithful and just,
A necessity or a "must
Have" feeling for youth?
Is it even a truth?
Can it even be explained? Or
Does it need to be felt for
Years upon years before
It's depth can even be
Explored?

Lord.
What is Lord?
Is it a title to be ducked?
Mortality doomed to death?
Is it eternal or a breath?
Is it holy, divine,
Worshipped sovereignty or a "fine
Line" crossed by adults?
Is it crucial to cults?
Can it even be explained? Not
More than as redemption bought
And paid for by a thought
That sets sinners free
From strife?

Life.
What is life?
Is it emotion to be sucked,
From a corpse forever dead?
Is it the body or the head?
Is it flesh, bone, and blood,
Something appealing or a "mud
Pit" with a small mind?
Is it that hard to find?
Can it even be explained? Ere
Long will death not have to share
What could have been there
To give the light to see
The dove?

Love is the tingly feeling you get when you climb the rope in gym class.
