True Love


Love is a powerful thing.

Love can control a life

to the point of destruction.

Because I love you

I hurt you.

Because I love you

I put you down.

That’s not love.

Love is kindness.

Love is friendship.

Because I love you

I will take care of you.

Because I love you

I’ll keep you safe.

As long as I love you

I’lol be by your side.

Because I love you

Our lives will be whole.
