Awesome Love Conquers

Maybe for the longest time,

People didn't understand the power of love.

The ability to do so is at the very root

Of our feeble existence,

Gives us purpose and the belief that

There is something truly worth existing for.

Why have we denied people,

                           beautiful human beings of this beautiful Earth,

                                                                                       the right to love? 

Love should be proud,

Love should be accepted, 

Love should be signing next to "x" with your

Soul Mate's last name,

Love should be a peck on the lips

Even in public,

Love should be making chocolate chip pancakes in the morning

With each other, 

A band glinting off the finger on your left hand as you mix the batter,

Watching your children from the window play in the sun.

Love should be for Everyone.

Love should just be.

And it can,

one person, 

one state,

one country

at a time.
