Simple Love


Dogs love meat

Cats love mice

Bears love sleep

Animals are nice

Humans can be mean or nice

They can be shallow or deep

It's already hard to love them or be nice

Why must it be hard to meet?

 

A relationship should not be difficult!

For love is simple

Society makes it heavy, a slog, a bog.

When love is        sugar                 stars               sky

But why are there strenuous decorum?

 

To love is to be happy

To be mutally happy

Don't worry about a love's complexity

Free-spirited, free-form, free-willed

Make others happy

But don't let others make you unhappy

To be a spirit no one can grasp, but everyone can be with

No one can ever stop another from smiling

A smile can only be stopped by its creator
