Real Love
What is love?
Love is carrying a baby for nine months knowing the sacrifice it takes
Love is putting someone else’s needs before yours because of their sake
Love is a battle of compromise and communication
Love should be the glue that holds together a falling nation
It’s meant to be timeless, endless, and pure
Not an imaginary lust which is only meant to lure
Love should create happiness, it should give you strength
It should break walls and take you to impossible lengths
When a mother exclaims, “because I love you” we know it's true
She continues to spend energy just caring for you
When the world turns against you she is the only one
And it’s because she loves you that your life continues to run
Because I love you I will sacrifice everything to protect your heart
Because that’s what mothers taught us from the very start
