For love


Love is it worth it? Problems intermingling with ones you already own Flaws accepted and complemented with strengths Conversations, debates, and compromise Giving and taking each others actions Maturing,Growing, and helping each other Commitment to one another through tough times Enduring temptation of abandoning the other to pursue ones own Living, learning ,and enduring the cycles of life together Having someone who accepts you for who you are Being able to reveal ones scared fearful self trustingly Putting ones heart on the line hoping to receive the other in return Love is it truly worth it? Worth risking your heart and sanity at times Enduring instead of giving up and stress free living Or is it merely one life lesson after another? Full of heart break and regret Pursued time and time again attempting to fill a whole left vacant Will selfish love for others fill the vacancy Or will love for ones self alone do the trick Self love is the light for all others For you can't love someone else If you don't embrace and love your own skin and soul Learn,Embrace, and love yourself for the sake of love
