Love <3


Love is precious, Love is kind

Love is there, yet not mine

 

It is wild, It is tame

Like the sparks of every flame

 

Can't be bought, but always there

It's distraught and unfair

 

Like the wind in every breeze

It comes and goes with such ease

 

It leaves us broken, it leaves us lost

It returns with welcome, no cares for costs

 

We are but its gentle holders

as we do our heart smolders

 

With the fire of every passion

in every possible unlikely fashion

 

It is not a want, but a need

for every soul and every seed

 

Love makes us who we are

no matter how near or far

 

Its intertwined with our souls

It connects us as we go

 

Its imbedded in with every being

and has been since the beginning

 

This is love, so take caution

it doesn't come quite so often

 

But when it does you will know

Love is our life, not our foe

 

Feel your love, for it will leave

Just like the wind takes a leaf

 

Through the sky and in the air

Love is great, but always rare.
