Cautious Love

Love can be only what you want it to be
I just want it to be a part of me
Love to me is like a growing oak tree
It grows slow but it’s pure
Love can be hard but there’s always a cure
The cure can be hard to find but it’s always there
Don’t be afraid to look, it could be anywhere
Giving up on love is like not living
Don’t give up if you are willing
Love is serious and not a game
Love can never be taken the same
You must have respect for love every time
Love will never stop on a dime
So don’t rush in at anytime
Take love for granted
For what you have maybe all you get
So be smart and hold on to it
