It's Love

It's love that holds us together
It's love that tears us a part
It's love we never have enough of
Deep within our hearts

It's love we are demanding
But is it love we're willing to give
Love that should take precedence
Over how we all should live

It's love that pours down from the heavens
On each of us like drops of rain
But how many of us set out buckets
To catch the love that's given

It's love that starts the cycle
That spins the world around
When we find ourselves at loss
Love is where we can be found

It's love that is the answer
To the questions that we raise
A solid yes lays all else to rest
As we let love have its way

Fickle love should be a more consistent love as described in your lovely poem Mike!:)

You've stated a great case for love, it is both the the question and the answer.
