Some define love as life changing
Maybe a reason for life rearranging
Some tend to think of love as a significant other
Not a best friend, sister, or brother
Love is not limited to these things
Love is not bound to one person or feeling
Love is not abusive, demanding or controlling
Love is acceptance, understanding, and caring
Love isn't looking their texts on their phone
Because you can't trust them when they're all alone
Love is handing over the last cookie to your younger sibling
While your stomach is growling
Love isn't changing a person to suit your needs
Love is helping a person because it's what they need
Love isn't someone constantly buying you things
Love is someone constantly putting a smile on your face
Love isn't accusing someone of not having morals
Or not being loyal
Love isn't dictating someone's actions
Or not caring what happens
Love is putting someone's needs before your own
And when a person becomes your home
It's giving food to the hungry
It's giving blankets to the cold
It's giving your own things to strangers
Or it could be a spouse
Or someone else who lives in your house
There are so many things love is
There are so many things love isn't
And maybe that's why
It's better left undefined
Love is a person donating to a charity
Love is advocating for equality
Love is a biker dad letting his daughter do his make up
Love is when you get home and you see your dog's eyes light up
There's love all around the world
And there's more than you think
In more ways than you would think
