Love is when


Love is when

I tell you “be safe”

Love is when

I ask you “have you eaten?”

Love is when

I get on my hands and knees and pray for you

Love is when

I constantly check up on you

 

Love is when

I put my pride to the side,

to embrace your feelings inside

Love is when

You're the first and last thing I think about,

before I go to sleep,

And when I wake up

Love is when

I end an argument to dodge a break,

Just so we can make up

 

Love is when

Every tear you shed I shed

And every pain you feel I feel

Love is when

Your at your lowest and I’m there to lift you up

You feel down on your luck, and I remind you to never give up

Love is when

 

It's when….

 

There is just you

and there is just me,

together living in harmony
