Demonstrate, Rather

show your love;
don't just say it,
prove it,
make it ring true;
leave no room for doubt.
act on it!
truly 
being there 
unasked;
a clear sign 
of true love.
show up rain or shine 
to help someone you love 
jump...
through all of life's hoops.

(yalto)

"Yalto" is a form invented by yours truly.
