Love is

I have heard people say:
love is patient and love is kind.
I have heard of all the ideals
that come with love
but in truth
these just come with time.

Love hurts us
Then heals us
Love forgets us
Then knows us
Love is vulnerable
Yet strong
Love is us

Love is the touch of a mother
Love is seeing another
For who they are
And not what you wish they could be
Love is who you are in your nakedness before God

Love is a dream
The dream that keeps you awake
The dream that manifests through
Your talents
Love is the joy of doing what you love

Love is love
You are love
Love is the blooming of your soul

The tenderness of nature
Expresses love
The growling of the machines
Expresses love
The speaking of your silence
Expresses love
For you say a lot in your silence
And as such love is in that space

Love is still
Yet shakes you
Love is quiet
Yet screams at you
Love is Featherlite
So be careful if it heavy on your soul

Love is corny
Love is cheesy
Love is love

So stop worrying about it
Just experience it
For you are love continually
Expressing itself
You are love knowing itself
