The Most Powerful Thing in The Universe: LOVE


People all around the world search for one thing They look all around for this enticing need Some don’t know what it is Some get a feeling of greed It hides in corners and in the shadows of the dark It comes out when you least expect it Its overwhelming but not uncomfortable one bit It can move mountains and transform people It’s the most powerful thing, yet it can also cause destruction People tend to misuse and abuse it They give it a bad name But IT doesn’t cause havoc when you’re the one to blame When the right one holds it, it’s strong and holds truth It will prevail as long as it’s meant to be and ready to be seen This intangible yet unprecedented object is LOVE Love brings people together and walks with humility It has the ability to render problems However, it can be tender You must be gentle and kind Those who never find it will truly miss out Some are afraid of its powers Others can’t accept them People have had bad experiences with love But when it’s unconditional It is the one experience that never ends Love is like a silver lining It gives you hope and a chance to truly live Without it The world would be desolate The people would be lost
