Love is more than a word


I love you.

This phrase should hold a special kind of meaning,

The meaning of feelings like caring and loving enriched in them.

I love you should be delivered in a way that is meant more than a share of words between people

Or used for manipulation.

Because I love you, you should only hang out with me

Because I love you, I need to know where you are at all times

Because I love you, I control you

Because I love you, no one else will love you like I do because of who you are

I love you should turn twisted 

I love you should not make people afraid

I love you should not be told to get in someone's pants

I love you should be said when the person you share deep feelings for are becoming much deeper

I love you should be said when you notice the little things about them that make them special in your eyes

I love you is when you miss them when they have been gone for not too long

Love is more than a word.

Love is NOT manipulation.

Love is a feeling.

Love is Love.
