Love is a Verb


When love is a noun, it can be used, misused, and abused. When love is a verb, it can only do good for those around it. When love is a noun, it can be so easily manipulated into hatred. When love is a verb, it does not have time for anything else but love. When love is a noun it can be given as easily as it can be taken away. When love is a verb, its only modifier is "unconditional." When love is a noun, we ask, "Who am I to deserve this?" When love is a verb, we know that everyone deserves love. When love is a noun, it can be stopped and silenced. When love is a verb, it is perpetual and it is loud. When love is a noun, it can recess. When love is a verb, it can only progress. When love is a noun, it simply is. When love is a verb, it does.
