True Love

True love.

What we all search for.

True love.

Always wanting more.

 

But what is it?

Can anyone help me see?

What is love?

Break it down for me.

 

Does it just exist

with no effort on our part?

Is it really

stored in a chamber of my heart?

 

No, no, no.

Don’t follow the popular definition.

Love is more

than mere infatuation.

 

You work at it.

Fight for it.

Live for it.

Practice it.

 

You don’t fall in or out

with no control over what you do.

It may take all you have

just to keep it alive in you.

 

You nourish it.

Take care of it.

Protect it.

Cherish it.
