The Definition of Love


Love

A term we all know

In a large amount of variations

With a multitude of connotations

Love

Comes in many different forms

Meant for friends and family

Lightly and heavily

Defined in more ways than we can imagine

Across all the different cultures

Love

Is not always in plain view

It is not always there

Love

Is a breath of fresh air

We all need before death

And during life

At anytime possible

Love

Is something we are all capable of giving

And receiving

Even if it takes effort

Even if it takes practice

Love

Is mental nutrition

We can survive without it

Not for very long though

And not very well

Love

Is something you show yourself

And others

Love

Is the intangible force that makes our world go round

Love

It’s something that should be in your air

I hope it’s everywhere
