what is love?


Some say that love is in giving a present,

when receiving a gift it really is pleasant.

But the love that they have is usually lost,

if the present in question doesn't have a high cost.

 

Others say that love is no more than a word

To demean love as such is simply absurd

Love consists of feelings and actions,

Without these, there will be no attraction.

 

I say that love is when two persons will change,

Being the best that they can in this exchange,

Love only works if it is returned

This seems tricky, but it can always be learned
