What love takes


What Love Takes

Love,

Love is pain,

Love is to be sane,

But love is not all the same,

Some love is whole,

Some love is cold,

Some love is sold,

But real love is full,

Full of happiness,

Full of tragedy,

Full of catastrophe,

The reality is staggering,

But it takes two to love,

It takes two to fight,

It takes two to share,

To share is what make us whole,

Whole is what love sees,

Whole is what love feels,

Whole is what love tastes,

And whole is what love takes
