Love isn't something you take
or a game you play
Love is who is left when
others walk away
Love isn't about myself
and what you can give me
Love is when I value you
and treat you tenderly
Love isn't lust
and runaway passion
Love is intimacy
and heartfelt compassion
Love doesn't leap
without a parachute
Love moves slowly
and often is mute
Love isn't science
or chemistry
Nor is it a novel
or mystery
Love fulfills
and sets you free
without the pressure
of sexual expectancy
Love is about you
and who you are
Not what you have
and if you will go "far"
Users are losers
pretending to be winners
Too often "true love"
is camoflauged sinners
Love will respect
honor and cherish
Love never demands
your dignity perish
Love values you
and what you feel
Love never negotiates
for the "best deal"
Love is a seed
planted in two hearts
Tended by GOD
the journey starts
.....peace.....
