Love Is
Love is patient, kind, forgiving
It doesn’t keep track
It doesn’t keep points
It’s the gentle whisper
Calm, reassuring
Don’t want to be mad at you
Don’t want to hate you
Don’t know why others want me to
Their words lit a fire
They smudged out your light
Comforted in what they preached
Their poison gnawing at me
Everything love is not
Your gentle whisper
Patient, kind, forgiving
Love is
