Agápi


We enter with love

We leave with love

We know only the word

Not the feeling

We love with our words

Not our heart

You ask, "What can I not live without"

I can't live without "Love."

Agápi

If I choose to live without this

I'm not living

If you choose to show love with mere words

You aren't alive

I can't imagine a world

Where everything is without substance

Agápi

Love is involuntary, but patient

It never asked you to love that man, woman, or friend

It only let you feel

I can't live without that feeling

Agápi
